Hi net mailing list,
Currently at my parrents house we have just a cable modem where
I use DHCPv6
and DHCP to get a IPv6 prefix and IPv4 address respectivelly.
For this config everything is done in the kernel regarding
routing. The ISP
is Telenet and they give me 300 down / 20 up (mbps).
But I really want a higher upload in my future appartment where
I will be
moving is *soonTm*.
So looking for ISP's in Belgium, Proximus seems to provide a
fibre plan (if
fibre is available, but it should be) that does 500 down / 50 up
(mbps).
They use PPPOE and was wondering what the max troughput looks
like with the
in-base PPPOE client?
I have also found some mentions of net/mpd5, is this a better
implementation?
Thanks
Dries
I wrote my experience with PPPoE for a dual-stack FreeBSD router
back in very late 2019 here:
https://evilham.com/en/blog/2019-FreeBSD-eXO-router/ it might save
you some trouble.
Not much has changed since I wrote that, just as others mentioned:
mpd5 is kind of a must, performance gets much better just by using
mpd5. FWIW my home fiber runs at 600Mbps without any issues (only
limited by the wholesale provider).
Cheers,
