Hi

We've detected a strange anomaly concerning ADSL connections and=20
FreeBSD servers.=20

Namely, clients of a local Telco, who are using a specific ADSL=20
package are having trouble with connections to FreeBSD and OpenBSD
servers (this might concern NetBSD too, but we haven't checked yet).

Connections to BSD based servers are two times slower then connections
to servers on another platform, for example Linux or Solaris. =20

The anomaly concerns only one specific bridged ADSL package (64k up,
256k down), which includes mostly Nokia bridges on the client side and
has filtered incoming TCP connections by the Telco. It is also the=20
only package in their list that uses PPPOE.=20

We've observed this problem for some time now and have come up
with no explanation for this. We've consulted with the Telco and=20
they have been most cooperative, as they use FreeBSD=20
themselves, but they too have not figured out a couse for this.

So. Has anyone here detected any similar problems, with PPPOE=20
customers having trouble with connections to BSD servers?=20

Thank you in advance.
