So I'm attemptiing, still, to get my PPPoE connection working and share it over the network. Due to the network equipment I'm stuck with (HomePlug Ethernet) I can't use a hardware router. I have been told there is routing software which I can use to solve the problem, but I have no idea what some good software is. I'd like to know what good routing software is out there that could perhaps handle this problem. Any ideas?

Did you give Internet connection sharing a shot? It seems to do the trick in a pinch...

smoothwall, astaro or clark connect should help you, but u need a dedicated box for any of them.

bgroff: FYI, Internet Connection Sharing and PPPoE don't like each other very well. That was my first attempt. Failed horribly.

JackMDS: AnalogX Proxy worked great except for when I tried to run any of my online games.

I managed to find WinRoute Pro, which is working out fine EXCEPT for one thing: IRC downloads. I'm not sure how exactly to do it and any of the full Sock5 proxies I get don't seem to help, so I'm now wondering if anybody has any advice on places to find out how to iron out the last kinks like this.

Thanks for all the help ^_^.
