I'm guessing Ed means when DSL needs to be connected via the PPPoE client after a re-boot or when the DSL line connection goes down (weekly or less in the case of Earthlink). If this is true, then yes, there is a connection delay as the authentication needs to be done with Earthlink. My connection takes some time but how much is a guess; a minute? less? more? I don't know. I'd probably notice "instant" but that has never occurred in 2-1/2 years. -- Gerry Boyd ============= PCWorks Mailing List ================= Don't see your post?
