Not on a Sumitomo DSL router :-p  It partially works, but not
entirely.  It works better on the latest ones than on the
earlier ones, but is still officially held to be 
unsupported.  Works fine on Cisco.  Probably works fine
if you're running a DSL modem and using a Linux box for
NATting, too (neat little jig to keep this on-topic,
huh?  :-)
