Posted by timothy on from the marketing-ideas-are-too-easy dept.

    What's wrong with PPPoE? I've been using it for years. My account currently has a static IP address and I've been hosting my own domain on it for a couple of years. PPPoE is a non-issue as far as I'm concerned. It has some good benefits for both me and the ISP too.
