Re: Current, Former Cable INET Subscribers Please

PPPoE is horrendous. Am I correct that right now business class is Dynamic / static while consumer class is PPPoE for DSL?

PPPoE means a non always on connection no matter how its configured IF more logins occur than the system is designed for. PPPoE was the cause of notorious Verizon DSL problems in the past. I would prefer non PPPoE if I had the choice.

PPPoE to me is a non-issue. I have used it now for almost a year and have not had a single issue. My connection is on 24x7. Can PPPoE have problems, sure, but so can a dhcp server. Is PPPoE somehow worse or better then DHCP, no, as they are both means to getting an IP address.

The important points are:
1) is the connection on when I need it.
2) Is the connection maintained when I am online.

If you configure keep alive to on PPPoE will operate in an always on fashion.
