I recently got a deal on a Netgear router so I'm using the standard build on it (DD-WRT v24-sp2 (12/24/10) std) and as noted above, with MTU = 1486 single-link MLPPP is working just fine. It's unfortunate it never worked on the micro build, but alas, it doesn't seem like enough people use it to make the effort worthwhile.
# Uncomment the next line to enable multilink PPP (enabled by default)
55 # Linux distributions: Please leave multilink ENABLED in your builds
56 # of pppd!
57 include ../../.config
58 ifneq ($(CONFIG_DIST),"micro")
59 ifneq ($(CONFIG_DIST),"micro-special")
60 HAVE_MULTILINK=y
61 endif
62 endif
i also have to have a look at
mpshortseq
Enables the use of short (12-bit) sequence numbers in multilink headers, as opposed to 24-bit sequence numbers. This option is only available under Linux, and only has any effect if multilink is enabled (see the multilink option).
mrru n
Sets the Maximum Reconstructed Receive Unit to n. The MRRU is the maximum size for a received packet on a multilink bundle, and is analogous to the MRU for the individual links. This option is currently only available under Linux, and only has any effect if multilink is enabled (see the multilink option).
btw did some of u guys some scripting to use more than 1 line for mlppp?
i dont know how the ppp interfaces show up on linux? does it show as many interfaces as lines or only one? how is it merged into one interface or stream of data? _________________ Forum Guidelines...How to get help

Posted: Wed Sep 07, 2011 5:28 Post subject: Cannot get mlppp to work with Asus WL-520-GU,
HI! Well I tried very hard but no cigar. I tried type in "nomppe mp" in mppe encryption
check mark multi link
and set mtu to 1442?
It works with tomato though! after 9 hours of searching for the right info. the tomato site removed the ND file (New Driver)from there main package. I had to find a older version. that the Asus WL-520-GU needs.
I am wondering if there is something in specific that needs attention concerning my router in order for mlppp to work?
After I installed tomato using the proper version for my router all was setup in a matter of minutes.
I am still using dd-wrt for my HOTSPOT routers and would prefer have all routers using the same firmware.(dd-wrt).

I was wondering if someone here has tried the Multilink (dual line) with any Asus router?
I was looking at the Asus RT-N16 and I am wondering if has got a multi-line connection to work with dd-wrt?
I have been browsing around and no one has it available for the Asus RT-N16. Tomato, Openwrt are both talking about it but are slow to implement it ( mlppp) and have not yet for the asus rt-n16.
Tomato did however mention that they are thinking of basing there broadcom firmware on the asus rt-n16 because of its power and affordability but also mentioned that it would not be anytime soon.
As for now my setup works but my router cannot keep up with the connections and users request due to its limited power and memory. I am using mlppp with dual lines as a gateway for a HOTSPOT connection with about 10-15 users and right now what I got is just not cutting it.

I would LOVE to get multi-line ML-PPPoE working. I'm stuck with 3 mb/sec dsl and need to get 4 lines hooked up and working. (they're slow but they're cheap!)
Anyone get it working in DD-WRT with multiple lines?
