Very Nice. Will try out immediately. Can you comment if you've included other improvements to tomato mentioned here? If not, is it something you might consider?

Any chance Bell can turn a dial and throttle this method?

Most of those enhancements were already merged into Tomato v1.18 mainline. There doesn't seem to be much left that's different by v1.19.

reply to Guspaz
Actually that blog talks about enhancements to v1.19 that aren't in the stock .. unless I misread it. Have you had any communication with the Tomato guy about incorporating this in the official release?

BTW .. thanks for all your efforts in getting this to work. Thousands will thank you I'm sure.

As far as I can tell, the only changes that are new in v1.19 are "Tuned IP route cache parameters".

Regardless, we don't have any plans to merge in those changes.

Tomato 1.19

* Removed route hash size changes. This seems to have caused overflow and "rusty's brain broke" errors for some people.
* Fixed disabled GUI button was not dimmed.
* Updated DST for France, Germany, Italy, Poland, Sweden timezones.
* Updated L7 patterns 2008-02-20.

Maybe a stupid question, but did you guys manage to get a simple GUI on to make neccessary changes, or is it still command line...

Been using DD-WRT, but willing to try Tomato if this works....

reply to Guspaz
My understanding is that those speed enhancements (in 1.18) were removed in 1.19 b/c of issues.

This is all configurable through the UI now. In fact, most users only really need to care about the "MultiLink PPP" dropdown. They'll want to change it from "Off" to either "Single Link" or "Multiple Links", and plug their second modem in if they have one.

EDIT: If some of those changes were removed in v1.19, all the more reason NOT to apply them.

reply to Guspaz
Is the second modem by default going in Lan 1, or is that configurable as well?

Now, better set up a donation box, because any effort to escape throttling should be funded in my view

reply to Guspaz
BTW, anyone have an issue with the .rar

I can open the rar for the source but not the firmware...(using WinRar)

reply to SSP87
My personal view on single line MLPPP is that Bell could do something between now and fall. As more users are using this, it would eventually show up on the radar screen. Hopefully the privacy commission would buy us a C&D. Fingers crossed.

As for multiple lines, it might be tougher for them.

reply to Guspaz
Bit of a followup... Got it going, Cleared NVRam and all that. Router Config Pages & Internet feel significantly more sluggish compared to before yet CPU/mem/etc usage on router is normal. Can anyone else confirm?

Aside from a standard configuration only thing that I've really changed is the router IP to 10.0.0.1... but it couldn't/shouldn't be related to that could it?

Hardware: WRTG54GS v1 (Single Link)

Torrents are much faster however...

I found I had to be logged in for the rar to download properly... otherwise it just saved the DSLReports error message as a rar file.
