    Have you checked your line stats? Might be that your line is not up to your bb speed?

    I have recently noticed that it takes much longer for the Eircom Netopia router to establish a PPPoE connection with Eircom's BAS (Broadband Access Server). There are several failed attempts initially, some routers will give up at this point, it depends on what your config is. There is no problem with the DSL connection to the DSLAM in the local exchange though, so dsl link light will indeed be constantly on. Best thing to do in your case is power off the router for a few minutes and try again. Are you using the Netopia or your own router?
