I changed the router to 192.168.254.1 still no luck

dont know why the router modemn trick quit on me all of the sudden I could not connect at all.

When HiVolt's setup is working, are the other computers connected to the router WITHOUT MLPP still protected by the routers firewall?

In other words, when a connection is made with MLPP, that PC is the only one on the network not protected and needs a firewall like ZoneAlarm?

Please confirm.
Yes, that is correct. You need a firewall when you create a direct connection on the computer. Other machines with a connection thru the router are not affected, as they are still behind the router's NAT routing.

Here is an idea for the people who have non-WRT54G linux capable routers, to temporarily use the MLPPP trick in Windows, in order to bypass the traffic shaping.

Set your modem in bridge mode & disable its DHCP server, and your router should be configured to use your TekSavvy PPPoE login, as usual.

What the loopback wiring allows you to do, is to establish a PPPoE connection using Windows XP, with the multilink checkbox, while your router is still connected in the mix and can still supply your other PCs or devices with internet. When you connect in Windows using it's built in PPPoE, it overrides whatever is supplied by your router, so you can download a torrent or use whatever application is affected by the DPI.

However, as you can see, it eats up two ports on a typical 4 port router. If you have another switch with more ethernet ports, you can easily uplink to your router and your problem is solved. Also, as this creates a direct IP connection to your machine, it bypasses the firewall of your router. So make sure to at least enable the Windows firewall, or use some other firewall software of your choice. Otherwise, you're left exposed to the net with a direct IP. One last thing. If you have a singlestatic IP, you will have to manually force a disconnect in your router's web interface, as an account with a single static IP will not be able to connect again unless its disconnected. You can then establish the PPPoE in Windows.

As an added bonus, you can now access your modem's line stats without unhooking your router. Just make sure the modem's IP address is different than the router's. If not, change one, for example the modem 192.168.1.254 (ST516), router 192.168.1.1
When HiVolt's setup is working, are the other computers connected to the router WITHOUT MLPP still protected by the routers firewall?

What worries me about HiVolt's fix (btw, very clever fix!) is connecting the modem to the LAN ports. This will, in effect, make the WWW part of the LAN.

Depending on the intelligence of the L3-switch/router it might allow administrative connections, to the router from the WAN that are normally reserved for LAN.

eg.

if Modem is 192.168.1.254
if L3 Switch/Router is 192.168.1.1
if user is 192.168.1.100

Modem connections might enter LAN from outside clients as 192.168.1.254, fooling the router into thinking that connections to the router's admin page are coming from within the LAN.

I have not tested this, but it does raise the question.

Password(s) on the router MUST be set and changed from defaults if we wish to avoid this problem, me thinks. I'm interested in hearing from people with equipment to test this.

Are you guys telling me, that without any tampering of my current setup, I can use RASPPOE on a PC on the LAN (that currently obtains it's inet connection through the belkin) to initiate a MLPPP connection?

Cause with the built-in PPOE it doesn't.

so i guess setting up MLPPP on XP with rasppoe wouldnt work in this case ?

what about the Asus500g or asus 600 routers

I hear they are good for handing many open connections ... i dont really care about the HD option ..

but its either that or the WRT-G Linksys ..

what should I get if going to upgrade..

They are both under 100$ but i need something better than the DI-524 to support a dual-attached home with 5 people connected wireless on different floors.

any suggestions ?

I followed your instructions exactly as described on this post, but still cannot connect. I have a single line DSL connection with a Gnet BB0050 modem and a DLink DI-624 router. The Gnet modem was pre-configured and I inherited it so I don't know how to verify if it's in bridge mode.

The error message (E691) is to the effect that my username and password are invalid.

I would appreciate your help.

edit: I've tried putting a rule in the router's firewall, to allow everything, didn't make any difference.
Also, I can't access the dsl modem anymore, either (since I've installed the router). Again, even with the "allow everything, everywhere" rule in the router's firewall, and being on the same subnet as the dsl modem, I still can't access it. I guess that explains why the raspppoe connections can't find any service offered...

Sorry, I guess I got kinda offtopic, although this IS about raspppoe and getting mlppp to work under windows...

So, anybody has any suggestions as to why I can't see my modem anymore ?

I've gone through pretty much all the necessary steps I've seen in this topic, but there's no difference - still throttled.

Running win2k (I know, I know), installed raspppoe no problems, tested the connection, works fine. Have a ST516 dsl modem, (re)configured it to work in bridge mode (was in router mode). Works fine, I have net connection - _through_ the pppoe connection created with raspppoe -, but there is no difference in download/upload speeds - around 50-60 k/s, just like it was before.

I'm not using a router, for the time being. The modem still has DHCP enabled, if that makes any difference.

I'm not sure what else to check... And I'm sure I must be missing something.

Thank you.

edit: Well, I guess it's kind of a non-issue anymore... I've installed my router (DI-524), and the regular connection works fine, but the raspppoe connections can't connect to anything (can't find modem); when I use raspppoe to query available services, it says there are "no service offers received". Nothing else changed in the system, besides adding the router between the computer and the modem...
Is there anything I can enable in the router's firewall (I imagine this is where the problem is, since that's the only thing that's changed) ?
I'd welcome any suggestions.

When I set up the router like in the picture I had internet so I made the 2nd connection. It worked, I was able to have 2 connections. There was a high pitch sound coming from either the computer or modem though. As soon as I clicked disconnect on the PPPOE connection the high pitch sound went away.

I tried the set up again and it doesn't work any more. As soon as I plug in the loup back from port 1 to WAN the high pitch sound is back.

Any ideas? How do you check if your router is in Loup mode and that the DCHP server is disabled? I tried through the modem set up but the only options it gave me is "auto connect on disconnect".

I setup the "workaround" PPPoE connection on the PC used for Bittorrent (2 NICs - 1 connected to D-Link / other disabled) and configured the modem/router according to HiVolt's "loopback" config. D/l speed on uTorrent at 11pm was above 30 Kbps but never exceeded 100KB/s. I let it run for 20 min.

After reverting the network back to its original setup, I enabled the 2nd NIC on the BT PC and connected it to a 2nd port on the modem (1st used by D-Link). Under this config, speeds in uTorrent at 11:40pm increased to 175KB/s-230KB/s.
The speed increased to 250KB/s-260KB/s after 2am.

It's 2:40am now. w/ PPPoE disconnected, and the connection back under control of the D-Link, the speed for the same torrents is 360KB/s-378KB/s)

I'm not a networking expert. Are there any changes I can make to the 2Wire modem, PPPoE connection, XP or uTorrent to increase the speed?

I'm on a 6Mbps/800Kbps profile and come pretty close to reaching those speeds (620KB/s / 80KB/s)

The global download/upload rate in uTorrent 1.8 beta 9272 is set to 455KB/s / 40KB/s, both easily reached when the connection isn't throttled. Protocol encryption is enabled and the incoming legacy connections box is checked.

Port is forwarded properly through the D-Link and windows firewall (windows firewall only enabled for PPPoE connection)

I'm using XP SP3 and i installed the crack (LvlLord.de) to increase the TCP/IP half-open connections from 10 to 50.

Thanks!

I have a 2wire 2700HG-B. So I setup a PPoE connection, as Hivolt said, then simply rebooted my router. No bridge mode, no wiring changes, no nothing.

Then, I booted up XP, started the PPoE connection, then started my torrent & got full speeds.

Shut down the torrent, disconnected the PPoE, then restarted torrent again. Back to 30KBs. Stopped torrent, opened PPoE again, started torrent & full speeds again.

Sweet. Thanks, Hivolt :)

I have a Motorola VT2142 from Vonage. I may be wrong, as well, but I recently had a ground fault on Bell's network that required Maintenance. Afterwards I couldn't connect to Teksavvy and through my troubleshooting with Tech support I had to reset my modem then put it into bridge mode to be able to connect through my VOIP box. This worked. Now I am left woundering how I can make MLPPP work to avoid some unpleasantness that I am experiencing.

Thanks dude,

Johnny Bones.
You are indeed right. I assume the VOIP box is also connected to a switch.
- Connect the modem to that switch (instead of the voip box).
- Connect both sides of the VOIP box to that switch.
- Connect your computers to the switch.

You should at this point have internet access on all systems.

Retry the MLPPP configuration.]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/Re-Any-ideas-how-to-Do-MLPP-with-xp-20489285 Thu, 15 May 2008 19:11:20 EDT Re: Any ideas how to Do MLPP ? with xp? http://www.dslreports.com/forum/Re-Any-ideas-how-to-Do-MLPP-with-xp-20489244

I'm pretty sure my modem is in bridge mode to allow for my VOIP box to connect to Teksavvy for me. Can this be done without a router?
I could be incorrect but I don't believe this is the case, what voip box do you have? Does it have more than 1 Ethernet jack in it? 3 or more?]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/Re-Any-ideas-how-to-Do-MLPP-with-xp-20489181 Thu, 15 May 2008 18:51:23 EDT Re: Any ideas how to Do MLPP ? with xp? http://www.dslreports.com/forum/Re-Any-ideas-how-to-Do-MLPP-with-xp-20489158

How would I do this with a modem connected to a voip box. When I try to create a connection and query available services using raspppoe it comes back with a "no service offers received" error even though I'm connected.
If your modem is doing PPPoE then you can't do it. Your modem and router must be two separate units. Or, if you have no router, your modem must be in bridge mode.]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/Re-Any-ideas-how-to-Do-MLPP-with-xp-20489052 Thu, 15 May 2008 18:28:26 EDT Re: Any ideas how to Do MLPP ? with xp? http://www.dslreports.com/forum/Re-Any-ideas-how-to-Do-MLPP-with-xp-20489015

It seem you are refering to using mlpp using tomato?]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/Re-Any-ideas-how-to-Do-MLPP-with-xp-20487867 Thu, 15 May 2008 15:04:15 EDT Re: Any ideas how to Do MLPP ? with xp? http://www.dslreports.com/forum/Re-Any-ideas-how-to-Do-MLPP-with-xp-20487832 said by overrryde:

Has anyone done this using another router than the WRT?

I want to know success or failure of this! curious cause im using a DLink DL-524.
Go to:
»wiki.openwrt.org/TableOfHardware···rect=toh

Look for your model. If under Ram it says less than 16 and under flash it says less then 2, the answer is unfortunately: never.

Otherwise, look under the support column. If you get OpenWRT installed on the box, it's feasible for you to do mlppp, just not with Tomato.]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/Re-Any-ideas-how-to-Do-MLPP-with-xp-20487832 Thu, 15 May 2008 14:54:42 EDT Re: Any ideas how to Do MLPP ? with xp? http://www.dslreports.com/forum/Re-Any-ideas-how-to-Do-MLPP-with-xp-20487738

You can have more than one PPPoE connection over a single DSL line.
Ok, I understand now.

Sorry to be so thick here.

1) Do I leave the DSL modem in bridged mode?
Yes
said by Anonym :

2) Does my router still manage PPPoE connections?
For those that aren't connecting using MLPPP, yes
said by Anonym :

3) Is MLPP running inside a PPPoE connection?
Yes.

I have a Speedtouch 510 and a D-Link DI 604.

Can you tell me what I have to do?
- Plug your DSL modem into the LAN section of the D-Link.
- Plug an Ethernet cable from the WAN port of the D-Link to the switch section.
- Connect your computers with the two remaining ports on the LAN side.

At this point, normally, everything should work as before. However the internal computers should also be able to see the Speedtouch.

- Setup your windows box as explained in the WinXP MLPPP discussion thread. You can use the same login as for the Dlink, as long as you DO NOT have a static IP address.
Thanks for this.

More questions:

I have multiple real and virtual computers (XP, W2K and Ubuntu) and devices (Nokia N800, OLPC XO). Once I do this I assume that they all individually have to be set up for MLPPP - I can't mix? If so, then I think that I will go the WRT54G route. If not, then:

What mode should my modem be in? Right now I think it is in bridge mode with the router doing the PPPoE login.]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/Re-Any-ideas-how-to-Do-MLPP-with-xp-20486502 Thu, 15 May 2008 10:48:21 EDT
