Don't know for sure, but with the actiontec, you can
enter 192.168.0.1 in the url box and go see what pppox
you are using plus other stuff. YMMV

I didn't have any dsl modem, so I bought this one..a
gamble on it lasting/working, but so far money ahead
by several months or so on renting/leasing one. In
fact well towards the cost of another unit IF this one
dies.
