Do remember that unlike PPTP/L2TP, as far as my firewall is concerned

You are a very lucky person. I have heard many complaints using MPLS,
some from people on this list who are welcome to post them if they want.

The complaints come fro problems with HOT not forwarding ALL of the packets, especially UDP, all of the time. They also don't always forward
certain TCP ports and protocols. One person on this list fought it and
was told they only claim to forward HTTP.

Most of the ISP's won't give it to you now anyway.

I use a custom Linux system as a router, which uses an L2TP tunnel
and it works fine. If I had to do it again, I would not, I would use
a small external router.
