You guys are a riot and I know God is laughing. .hell He made the duckbill platypus...now thats funny. We had on business client install a ptp from his business to his friends house. They went from 6 users to 15....it showed up on cpe dhcp list and speeds slowed down. I throttled them to 1mbps after two calls from us. He called to complain. .then threatened to cancel. We fired him and shut down LAN port. He called me a few choice words...oh well...next...I should have asked if I could use his wife for a few days....
