Burris, I'm not sure I understand what you mean by "not the first problem". Do you mean that you don't have issue #1 in my message that you quoted? I believe PPPoE provides the credentials your DSL modem needs to let a device PC or router connect to it, so I'm not sure it's germane. My gut feeling is if you disable your router's firewall you're opening yourself up to being hacked - I believe, besides allowing multiple devices access the internet, providing that firewall is another advantage of using the router - I'm no expert. Others more knowledgeable may have a comment you disabling your router firewall.

Anyway, based on Tim's response it appears it's normal for us to be sent those messages (also, see my other response).
