Yes.

That's an important start. It means we can move the the next layer, routing.

In Ethernet>Connections you need:

Encaps=PPP (If the other end is Cisco, they need to know you need PPP)
Route IP=Yes
Encaps>Send Auth=None
Ip Options>LAN Adrs=<their router IP/mask>
Telco Options>Call Type=Nailed
Group=<Group # from Nailed T1>Mod Config>Nailed T1 Group>
Data Svc=64k

Make sure your default route is their router IP. It'll do this
automatically if you set as much as you can under Configure...

HTH...
