Mmmm, yes, we've only used it in PPP mode; sorry to hear that.  There's
also a frame relay driver from SDL (no source), which we'll be evaluating,
but haven't gotten to yet.

On the other hand, I've been very happy with it in PPP mode.  Reliable
and fast, and handles a full T-1 without breaking a sweat.
