Hi,
I recently came across a problem with a device (the Vodafone Sure Signal) that would only work on a network with an MTU of 1500. I believe that Be (and a number of other LLU providers) use PPPoE rather than PPPoA and therefore have an MTU of 1492.
Probably not a problem in most applications.
Cheers,
Paul.

I'm with BE (standard residential ADSL), but my contract states 16Mbit
download & 2Mbit upload Unlimited. I typically get 6 to 8 download, but that
could be because of my location. Currently £21.50 pcm.
Cheers,
