iiNet and TPG are one company, but not one provider.<br>
<br>
I've seen a few others do IPoE, personally experienced it with
Skymesh as 1 example - similar to you I use aggregation services and
use PPPoE as it fit in with my existing network design (L2TP / VPDN
tunnels from xDSL services) so was a very plug and play addition to
my network.<br>
My provider has offered a non-L2TP hand-off for NBN services which
I believe they essentially bridge the connections to me as a Q-in-Q,
which I'm sure from there I could do IPoE, but I haven't seen much
of a convincing argument to force me to move over when my existing
LNS's are keeping up with the load and everything is already
working.<br>

using AAPT's NWB which forces us to use PPPoE. This obviously
adds both a network and support overhead and I'm wondering if
there is any way to do straight out IP like Telstra and iiNet
are doing. Interestingly it would seem that even TPG does NBN
auth with PPPoE which seems odd given they and iiNet are one.</div>
