And what happens when there are multiple CPE routers

a)  connected via a BMA LAN to the DSL or cable modem

and/or

b)  'connected' via separate NBMA links but are on the same WAN subnet 
(assigned by the ISP)

I think in the latter, if the ISP decides to silo the individual NBMA 
links then they need to adjust for that in how they do the sub-delegation 
which is I think what the issue is.  But if the ISP actually bridges the 
separate NBMA links, then there's no silo issue and the CPE can pretend 
they're in 'a'.
