I don't mean to be a pain here, but I really don't understand the insistence that this is purely a hardware problem. The second half of his sentence above (which you didn't quote) points out that the same hardware works correctly under Win95. I'm not suggesting that it's entirely FreeBSD's problem, since other TA's work correctly. I'm just surprised at the attitude that it's all Motorola's fault. Win95 demonstrates that it IS possible for the hardware to work correctly. > > I'm going to try another brand of external TA, does anybody have a > > suggestion, of a TA that is working with freebsd and mlppp? > > ADTRAN! http://www.adtran.com Just checked it out. Interesting stuff. Any idea of the street price of the ISU Express?
