hi ! this patch can work good with last tc release ? which performance haves with rp-pppoe ? bests andres. -> -----Mensaje original----- -> De: lartc-admin@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:lartc-admin@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx]En -> nombre de Jason Boxman -> Enviado el: Martes, 22 de Junio de 2004 02:17 p.m. -> Para: lartc@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx -> Asunto: Re: patch: HTB update for ADSL users -> -> -> On Tuesday 22 June 2004 06:00, Ed Wildgoose wrote: -> > >I'm running PPPoEoATM here.
