| Business Bell DSL + mlppp ?
Hi,
This may sound dumb, but does mlppp work on Business DSL account from Bell too ?
We have 2 x 8mbps (cost ±200 + taxes) doing load balancing. SSL site like banks work 25% of the time. I am tired of this. I did like to try mlppp so I would have a real 16 mbps (or 12 mbps) down connection. Normally 1 line is up to 8 and the other is up to 6, but tech support put both at 8  . So to lower cost, I would change the dsl package on the 8mbps line to have 2 x 6 mbps and run mlppp giving me 12 down 1,6 up (10200/1360 real speed). I know it is still beta but people have had good up time with what I have read so far in this forum...
So does mlppp work on Business DSL account from Bell too ?
Meaning I would still pay Bell 2x70$ for Business High Speed (6mbps) and 1 dsl login (10$) from TekSavvy ?
And if all is good, then I could see about switching to TekSavvy for both dsl line...
Btw, if we switch, since it is 2 business line would Bell remove us from the remote/co to put us somewhere else ? Right now the stats are 13 SNR and 20 Attenuation. And it would cost 130$ + taxes...
Thank you very much.
Marc. |

It will work fine using the login from Teksavvy as long as it is the PPPoE service from Bell, not the Nexxia service where they give you a Cisco router. |

| It will work as long as:
-Your current connection is PPPOE based...quick way to figure this out is: Do you currently use a Login and Password in Your Router or directly login via XP/Vista using something resembling a dialup-like connection
Eg. If your current connection is something like what TSI offers here »www.teksavvy.com/en/busdsl.asp?ID=7&mID=1 it will work...
If your current connection is like this »www.teksavvy.com/en/busadsl.asp?ID=7&mID=1 it won't work
-Bell doesn't support MLPPP, so you'll need a login from TSI (remember a $10 Login includes 100GB usage)
-Finally if your two modems are working fine now, they should be fine for MLPPP but you'll need a WRT54GL router with the modded Tomato firmware to which the two modems will connect.... |
