* This is the VOP Radius mailing list * The only problem with increasing the port limit is no prevention of multi-logins. Although these suggestions have been very useful I'm sure to Matt, They are only fixing the symptoms not the problem.
Matt, I personally would not accept an answer like "...this is the internet, people lose packets all the time" I would tell them to go f themselves. If that response comes from any provider, it is very telling that they think they have you buy the twig and berries and could care less about you as a customer. That very well may have been from a rookie radius tech, so maybe you need to talk to someone else higher on the chain and see what their advice is. I am sure we have all dealt with ghosting, but it seems as though not as bad as you. So that leads me to believe that there may be a bigger problem with loss. Maybe you should look for alternate sources of access, almost bet with near/identical numbers. I recognize some names hear that may be able to provide you with that service, not me but someone reading this.
