We don't use PPOE. Our network setup is DSL Modem -->ATM-->BLC
(Occam)-->IP--->Router--->Transit provider. Basically we turn on the
service and it's always running. We don't require any authentication or
do any subscriber management on our users. I will start looking into
the MTU issue though.

It sounds like that is a possibility. Are the DSL users being served by
PPPoE? Setting the IP MTU on your PPPoE access template, depending on
whose gear you're using to provide the servide provider end of your DSL
services, to 1492 may help.
