They started somewhere near 4.6-RELEASE. I was able to run my ISDN-modem in multilink ppp mode with 128 kbit/s, until June somewhere. I didn't realize until recently that it was FreeBSD's fault. I thought it was the other end Cisco 3640 that had some para- meters wrongly set. But we've made thorough tests with diffe- rent systems connecting to the 3640, with same result every- where. It WORKS with dual lines from several different modems and all types of M$ OS-es. But FreeBSD (currently running 4.7-STABLE as of a week back) connects fine with both lines. Transfers start at 128 kbit for approx 5-10 seconds. Then it times out for anything between 5 to 60 seconds. Then there is a new burst at 128 kbit, and so on. Effective bit rate is approx 20 kbit/s after a long transfer. The modem I run is ZyXEL Elite 2864i, and when it runs in single link mode it runs perfectly. I get 64kbit/s without any time outs. I've also tested a ZyXEL omni.net TA with same results. Runs fine at single link, but gets time outs with multilink -- Gunnar Flygt, Postmaster SR To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-stable" in the body of the message
