Re: MLPPP & Dynamic IP
Thanks, I just hope when Teksavvy starts offering MLPPP on their website, that they state that you must buy a WRT54GL router to get the MLPPP, and no other ones are compatible. It's an added expense to those of us who already have other branded routers. It's kind of crazy though that I can't just change the log-in info to the new realm on my D-Link. I thought the MLPPP was enabled on Teksavvy's end(their new equipment), and changing the log-in info to the new realm was to access it, through any router.
Still learning here  |

| MLPPP is enabled on their end, because the hardware needs to support the encryption and line binding that MLPPP uses.
The problem is that most residential routers don't have that capability built in because essentially nobody prior to 2008 used it. The reason why the WRT54GL is favoured is because it has a large amount of memory which can be used to load a custom firmware onto it, which allows the router to take advantage of more advanced technology, such as MLPPP. |

there are tons of tomato compatible routers.
For example I have An asus WL-500GP V2 router since it has way better specs than the WRT one.
Also TSI supports officially MLPPP as of July first. Till now was beta testing so it was a bit of a public secret that everybody knows  |
