If you can't give us detailed information, there's likely to be little
that anyone can do to help you.  Any details you care to share would be
appreciated -- "netstat -nr" output, packet traces (as I requested last
time), debug output, et cetera.

My understanding is that pppoe-server will not hand out the same IP
address to each connection, so that shouldn't be the problem you're
having.  But, yes, if you did have conflicting addresses on the links,
then you'd have a problem.

However, it's impossible to determine what sort of problem you might be
having if you won't provide details.  We just can't see your computer
from here.
