  BellAtlantic uses a customized browser and java code to perform the
  registration of the new ADSL customers.  once registration has been
  completed one does not need to use windows.  i have been using
  FreeBSD to connect to my BellAtlantic ADSL with PPPoE account for
  the last two months.

  initial registration can only be done on windows95, 98, or NT
  sp3,4.
