Hi,

did you get the PPPoE Links from only 1 ISP ?
Does the Provider Support MLPPP ?
then http://wiki.mikrotik.com/wiki/Manual:ML ... iple_links will help you.

if not, you can only get the max speed of one Uplink per session.

Hey all,

Here's an interesting spin on this...
I've used the manual PPC to load balance across PPPoE links many times and it works great.

I recently came across another situation, where they have two (they would like three), PPPoE links from the SAME ISP. The issue here, is that despite each link having a unique static IP address on the CPE end, the provider end has a single common LNS / termination IP address.

That means that the gateway route for each routing mark is the SAME IP address, and the Mikrotik ends up favouring (defaulting) one the links, and not using the other link.

Any ideas on that?

Put the interface to the route rule rather than the gateway IP address.
