Re: Hardware tips said by Cleanhead:said by bbbc:Whatever Vonage ATA you use, it needs to be behind the Tomato/MLPPP router. Interesting. That's the kind of info I'm after. Right now the the Vonage is between the modem and our Wireless Router. I don't know if you have the Vonage in MAC-bridging or router mode (or even if it supports MAC bridging) but I tried using my SPA-2100 in MAC bridging mode, between my modem & router, but didn't seem to get any improvement from implementing the SPA's QoS. I supposed that was because the QoS only occurs on routed packets, not bridged packets.
So if you have the Vonage in MAC bridging mode maybe try it in router mode to see if you can get the benefit of its QoS while still keeping your same architecture.
Note though, that you'd not have any MLPPP ability since the device doing the PPPoE login has to support MLPPP and I would doubt that the Vonage device supports that. |
