Please let me know if you guys have had any success, and if you've got success, let me know how I can have it too *chuckle*

Do you have the LAN Adrs, WAN Alias, or IF Adrs defined? I left those blank and assign the static IP from radius. Otherwise you have to set reported IP on the TC to correspond with the LAN Adrs. You should be able to just define the WAN Alias but I couldn't even get that to work between two ascends.

If you're running older versions of the TC software (as I am), BACP won't work (or at least, I can't make it work). Early on, one of my customers asked for a recommendation and I told 'em to buy the Ascend PL75 and then found that out. The choice is to 1) upgrade TC software [I think], 2) turn off BACP on the Ascend and tell it to either use just one channel or both of 'em with MP. For reference, I'm running Harc 4.0.30 and Hdsp 1.2.5. I'm going to upgrade after the upgrade is such that it fixes things and doesn't just trade my current problems for a new batch of problems. This software load I'm running only seems to have problems with older Rockwell stuff, and most of those are fixed by upgrading the client modems' code (or telling the customer they've been duped into buying a crap modem). ...other than that, everything's stable...no webtv problems, incredibly infrequent hung-modem problems, or any of the other issues that seem to be terrorizing others on the list here. Even current 3com Sportsters are speedy (to include a current thread *grin*). Telling a new customer that they need to upgrade their modem's software or maybe consider a decent modem is hard, but easier than explaining to an existing customer that they can't connect anymore or get a good speed because I "upgraded". [/rant] As for ISDN lan stuff, nowadays I recommend the smaller offices to use the 3com LANmodem or bigger places to use the Cisco 800-series. LANmodem blazingly easy to set up, and although I'd never claim a Cisco was easy to set up, after they're configured they run like, umm, a Cisco. Turn out the lights and shut the closet for a couple years. Lon On Wed, 29 Sep 1999, Marius Strom wrote:

In theory, there is no difference between theory and practice... ...In practice, there is a big difference.
