Do ISPs officially support this? Are there ISPs that describe how to put a DSL model in bridge mode and the configure Windows 10 to connect?
Funny story: between 2007 and 2008 O2 Czech Republic offered a new ADSL plan called Internet ADSL Start. On contrary to other plans this one didn't have a data limit but instead was charged per number of minutes on-line. Marketing department probably wanted to reuse old billing systems from the era of dial-up. For the purpose of measuring online time, modems were shipped in bridge mode and PPPoE connection was established from the connected computer whenever customer wanted to "connect to the internet". By that time, there were no smartphones nor tablets, even laptops were not that common. I guess there was only one PPPoE session supported per line. BTW, I wish somebody from O2 CZ reads this BCOP document, especially section 3.2.3. about problems with assigning less then /56. They are running a big deployment of IPv6 on xDSL broadband lines offering only /64 via PD with no option to get more addresses (not even for an extra payment). Their reaction on any complaints always is that their setup is sufficient for 99 % of customers and they don't see it worthy to support the 1 % of trouble-making customers (which is kind of same argumentation others use for not deploying IPv6 at all).
