Does anybody have any experience using pppd to run 
dedicated 115K ppp links (ISDN application) on
2.1.0 release. My main concern is reliability and
CPU loading experiences. I am considering 16550
UART based boards and the Cyclades products.
The router platform is  Pentium 100-133Mhz. It may
coexist with T1 frame links. I have solid T1 frame reliability
without system crashes. Would I jepordize this situation
by adding serial based ppp links? I am thinking about 
using the Motorola Bitsurfer Pro with multilink PPP in
a host mode (if possible) to combine the two B channels
into a 115Kbit single, spoofed ppp stream. Anybody else
trying this? I know that the USR I modems don't support
Multilink PPP in host mode (at least not yet). Any other
good ISDN adapters with Multilink PPP spoofing and host
mode support?

Thanks 


Sincerely, 
                        Chris Peltier
