[AusNOG] Multi-link PPP?

[Joseph Goldman]

Have tried it with multiple DSL connections - it can be a pain in the 
ass to get the MTU/MRRU settings correct, and I still saw a lot of out 
of order packets resulting in very poor performance, using Cisco 7206 
LNS MLPPP.

I have had better results using Mikrotik balance-rr bonding over 
multiple GRE tunnels between CPE and a terminating router in the DC. Its 
adds more levels of management but seems to work better from my personal 
experience. I'm pretty sure Fusion Broadband does similar with their 
equipment i.e. bonds tunnels over top of the L2 termination, rather than 
MLPPP, by the way a supposed staff member explains it (source:
