Sorry for the delay Travis. We can do this with CEF, but we don't recommend it over MPPPP. The reason is that MLPPP constantly tests each circuit to make sure that it is up. With CEF you would have to do that in some other manner. Regards, Jeff

We currently have a customer that has 4 bonded 4Mbps DSL lines, and they get 16Mbps any time they run a speed test. And, now that I think about it, at one of our very remote POP's, we have two T1 lines from Verizon using MLPPP and we get a full 3Mbps. We are using an Imagestream router at this location... I'm not sure what Verizon is using. Travis Microserv Adam Greene wrote: Yep, we're bonding DSL with MLPPP as well, with direct PVCs through Verizon. Caveat: we generally see only about 80% performance rates (i.e. if [4] 1Mbps circuits are bonded together, we get 3.2Mbps throughput). Have not found a way to improve this. Using Cisco gear on both ends. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Jeff Broadwick" <mailto:jeffl...@comcast.net> <jeffl...@comcast.net> To: <mailto:e...@wisp-router.com> <e...@wisp-router.com>; "'WISPA General List'" <mailto:wireless@wispa.org> <wireless@wispa.org> Sent: Friday, January 23, 2009 5:32 PM Subject: Re: [WISPA] bonding Hi Eje, Yes, you are correct. We can bond DSL using MLPPP.

If memory serves me right they do support mlppp. I'm sure Jeff can correct me if I'm wrong. /Eje ------Original Message------ From: Travis Johnson Sender: wireless-boun...@wispa.org To: WISPA General List ReplyTo: WISPA General List Subject: [WISPA] bonding Sent: Jan 23, 2009 11:22 Hi, We currently provide DSL service using Qwest. We are a "megahost" provider, meaning we have a DS3 directly to Qwest, and then we can sell DSL circuits using our bandwidth, etc. In the past, we have been able to "bond" multiple DSL lines using a Cisco router on the customer side and then using Cisco's CEF protocol. This provides a true bonded connection, because it does a "per packet" load balance. Is there a better solution? I have to use a Cisco on our NOC side, but I would prefer to find something cheaper. Any ideas on what protocol may work? MLPPP or ????? Travis Microserv ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- ---- WISPA Wants You!
