FunkyBeats Posted November 27, 2008 Report Share Posted November 27, 2008 Switch your home phone and internet to an independant ISP like Teksavvy, it's cheaper, you get better customer service and in light of the recent betrayal of the CRTC, do the following:Circumventing Bell Canada's throttling with one DSL line1) Install Tomato/MLPPP on your router just as you would install the normal Tomato firmware (refer to the Tomato documentation).2) On the Administration/Configuration page, reset your router to factory default settings, including NVRAM3) Set up your router just as you would with the normal Tomato firmware.4) On the Basic/Network page, set the "MultiLink PPP" option to "Single Link"Your router should now use MLPPP on your single DSL line, circumventing Bell Canada's throttling.For more info visit: Tomato/MLPPP It's time to let the market speak, no more gouging, there are valid alternatives.Enjoy,FunkyBeats.

Hartamophone Posted November 27, 2008 Report Share Posted November 27, 2008 OK... First I'll access the secret military spy satelite that is in geosynchronous orbit over the midwest. Then I'll ID the limo by the vanity plate "MR. BIGGG" and get his approximate position. Then I'll reposition the transmission dish on the remote truck to 17.32 degrees east, hit WESTAR 4 over the Atlantic, bounce the signal back into the aerosphere up to COMSAT 6, beam it back to SATCOM 2 transmitter number 137 and down on the dish on the back of Mr. Big's limo... It's almost too easy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mattm Posted November 28, 2008 Report Share Posted November 28, 2008 I was liking what I was reading until I got to the tomato page and realised that you need specific routers to install it which kinda sucks. On the other hand, I need a new router... On yet another hand (not sure where this hand is), I don't even have bell. I do however like the idea of running open source software on my router.hmmmm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FunkyBeats Posted November 28, 2008 Author Report Share Posted November 28, 2008 (edited) There are other methods that will work if you have a router that is not tomato capable. It involves: For more information on the specifics go here: MLPPP with XP/Vista Cheers, FunkyBeats. Edited November 28, 2008 by Guest Apparently my image doesn't work!

FunkyBeats Posted November 28, 2008 Author Report Share Posted November 28, 2008 For those who care you can get a WRT54GL for ~$52.00 plus shipping but remember no PST if you buy from out of province: WRT54GL prices FunkyBeats. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
