Very. I am an admin at an ISP, and betweem the various PPPoE implementations on win32 (Enternet, RasPPPoE), standalone routers = (LinkSys, NexLan, D-Link, Netgear, Cisco, Netopia) and LINUX (RP), FreeBSD and then LINUX are the two most stable implementations. They are the only two I have seen that can reliably stay connected and reconnect no matter what = the termination reason. Generally, my box stays connected unless there is = some sort of layer one interruption, or the DSLAM reboots and I have have to re-synch. But it always comes back after that, right away on its own = which is more than I can say for the other implementations. ---Mike Mike Tancsa (mdtancsa@sentex.net) =09 Sentex Communications Corp, =09 Waterloo, Ontario, Canada "Given enough time, 100 monkeys on 100 routers=20 could setup a national IP network."
