Then they don't support MLPPP, or they don't support multi-chassis MLPPP and your calls were routed to two separate boxes, or you weren't using software that supports MLPPP. MLPPP bundles all share the same IP address and hence you want to be static to use them, although it probably works with passing the address in the PPP protocol too. I'm assuming EQL != MLPPP, though. Win98 supports MLPPP, I'd hope we do too, or at least will in 2.2.x. (MLPPP ==> multi-link ppp. multi-chassis multi-link PPP ==> terminal servers which can do multi-link ppp when the calls come into separate chassis -- most terminal servers now on the market can I think. I don't know if Linux is able to do this bit, I haven't looked at it recently.)
