I second your claim of high capacity Linux routers. (my comments are not
specific to MT)
Our newest generation of Linux Routers are easilly passing 4-5Gbps through
it.
The secret to fast Linux routers was several fold. The first was to get to a
2.6 kernel, and NAPI support on drivers.

For example, a VLAN 150 access port connected to the default VLAN of

Hi Jeremy,
Thanks for the note back! I hope my frustrated peers haven't been too hard
on you :-). I've also cc'd the public WISPA mailing list so that folks see
what you've had to say.
I can tell you that my company (coverage map here: www.accima.com) is over
600 subs now. We compete again
I'd think that is fairly close. Heck, even out here I'm over 600 now!

One of the nice parts about StarOS is that the scripting format is the

so if you want to learn how to do fancy cbq scripts, just look for the

Nope, Not with StarOS and Tranzeo. Worked most of the time when I put a
