He is talking about 2 MHz on the CPU and 2 MByte of memory per PPPoE
connection but it seems there is a bug if ppp must handel more then 254
clients.
Since I can have up to 6 WaveLAN channels (each arround 3 Mbit) per
location in parallel and the customers will have 3/1 or 6/1 Mbit access
results in 300 to 600 clients...
Hmmm, I have some VIA EDEN MiniITX (Dual-Ethernet 1000 Mbit, 1400 MHz,
2 GByte of memory) and I can try something.... but how to install the
rp-pppoe redunant?
I do not understand this part...

I think, my VIA Eden will do it (and consuming very less energy)
