Well got hold of one of these and gave it a test run. One of the easiest 
things I've ever done!

Step 1 - Enable PPPoE Pass-through on the draytek. ISP options then 
become greyed out. This is the only config you have to do in the router.

Step 2 - Using whatever device you like, create a PPPoE connection and 
connect
Eg I tested with pfsense.

Step 3 - Done!
IP address will be assigned directly to your device.

Note - I forgot to test whether the firewall is automatically opened up, 
but I assume so.

Feel free to get in touch if you'd like one.

Regards,
Jack
