I found the TR059 Doc - but haven't read properly yet.

Grepping my sources - linux mlppp is mentioned in
Documents/ppp-generic.txt - it chooses frag size and expects > 1 line,
as I expect the Cisco does, unless it has other Qos settings the fact it
has settings for delay/frag etc. probably has nothing to do with TR059.

In the Doc MLPPP is used as an example of how to fragment - more work is
needed to actually use it for QOS on one link.
