I am looking for a way to improve the reliability of a lossy link 
(dialup from remote sites). I am going to try multilink PPP but was 
wondering if something like ng_one2many might work as well ?  Does 
anyone have any suggestions for avenues to explore ?  For multilink 
ppp, does mpd offer any better performance / reliability over the stock ppp ?

The application is low bandwidth, but doesnt deal that well with 
packet loss and the phone lines in these remote locations tend to be 
noisy and drop connections frequently.
