I can login with WinXP via Ethernet, but no go my D-Link router .... and this is not the 1st time their auth system has been practising PPPoE apartheid!

Anyone else's non-Windows PPPoE clients (e.g. Linux or broadband routers etc.) being discriminated against?

BTW on Kyalami JHB.
 
Had the same problem with my Linksys over the weekend. Connected with USB fine but router had trouble doing authentication... Dunno what's up
 
I had no problems on my Linksys WRT54G. Although I did suffer degraded performance which sometimes caused the connection to fail. But that was a network issue from what I gathered from the website.
 
WBS seems to go through periods when non-Windoze systems can't connect to certain BS's. The worst I've had was for 3 days that I couldn't connect from FC4 or IPCop, then it was miraculously resolved when I complained on MyADSL and mailed Sasan (and various other entities at WBS) to cancel the service.
