Hmm. Well this may very well be the situation with the specific per my area.
At leas it makes as much (and more) sense than any previously acquired
explanations toward this regard. Knowing for sure is the real question,
then. Might the technical parties that dealt with me have been aware of the
"incompetent," or "bug-ridden PPPoA servers" per my area and therefore,
recommended the "better-built PPPoE servers" toward a fix for the
connectivity woes suffered? Most likely.

Perhaps the bottom-line factor here is just what you have suggested. It is
"possible to do competent implementations of lousy protocols as well as
incompetent implementations of better protocols." I may have witnessed
direct evidence of this. Just how I can use this for the aid of others
though, remains uncertain.

How would I know just which areas have competent implementations and which
do not?

Thanks again.
