...Take a look at the documentation at »fixppp.org for the rest.
I looked and I still don;t understand why MLPPP allows traffic to be un-throttled.

MLPPP packets contain an extra 6 byte header which tells the PPPoE concentrator how to re-assemble the packets, the DPI boxes cant re-assemble packets or reorder them, so it passes them by as "I dont have a clue what this is, so, let it go!"

Thanx for the explanation. DPI = deep packet inspection or a brand name? Is it safe to assume that it's something Bell can learn to "fix" and throttle us again?
