Hi Sonic,
Here is some thoughts from me. Please remember just thoughts.
As dhclient now works properly, very great work, next logical step for me seems to be PPPoE.
A graphical GUI is of course also very nice. But going on/offline can also be made by launching a script through doubleclick on an icon, or by launching the script from the shell prompt (user-startup).
I do not myself have any possibilitie in doing any testing on PPPoE. Its not so very common used around here, but I know there is some isp's that uses it. I got the impression its more used by isp's in Germany ? The best would be if anyone who actually is using this, could do some testing.
Also how does it works using modem ? PPP, PAP, CHAP ?
Yes, miamipppoe is to set up in Miami as a 'serial type' device and mapped to the ethernet interface.
Anyway, the next step in the bounty says GUI.

Best wishes, Gunne
