Hi fellows.

I'm aiming at testing comms between two PC using TCP/IP's PPP layer on Ethernet cable without using Modems

I've being doing some reading on PPP layer and am planning to just connect two PCs using Ethernet or RS232 links to send/receive data packets. To my understanding thus far one needs a modem (for dial-up) or ADSL (PPPoE) to be able to configure using this protocol. But i don't want that, i have a project which i will be sending audio over RS232 to an MP3 chip for broadcasting using TCP/IP-PPP. So, for now i want to just test comms between two PC using this PPP without using modems

Your help will be appreciated
