Hi,

I've got a Billlion 8800 and want it to run a PPPoE link with a standard 1500 byte ethernet frame to my ISP (BT Infinity 2) but I don't know if it's possible to do it with this device. Is it possible? Is it just a matter of putting 1500 in the PPPoE page and it will automatically create the 1508 byte mini jumbo frame interface?

Thanks
Tim

To be honest, I'm not sure. 

Perhaps you could try the experiment and see if you obtain the required result?

Thanks BCat.

I can establish a 1500MTU if I use my regular router (using PPPoE) through the Billlions bridge mode... but can't find a way using the 8800 as a regular router.

I see. That's a bit of a disappointment but not completely unexpected. I believe other devices behave similarly.

It really depends upon whether you are prepared to have a two box solution (or are allowed to have a two box solution) when only one was used previously.
