I have an at&t ADSL line, running PPPoE on the modem and my WAN configured for DHCP.  However, under status --> interfaces, my WAN gateway is always shown as "link#2"  What does this mean?

I'm running m0n0wall v 1.22 on a wrap m1n1wall.

You might be better off or like it more if you put your modem into bridging mode and let m0n0wall do the PPPoE.
