As an addon to the above, they only support bridging of 2-3 MAC addresses.
Which is probably not an issue with a single device, but it's insanely
annoying if you run multiple devices doing PPPOE behind a bridged modem.

So I'm curious.. What ARE folks using as a bridged VDSL modem that supports
tiny jumbo frames? (Which was the main reason I went for the VDSL SFP in
the first place..)
