[pptp-server] Speed/performance problems with v0.9.10 and 98

[Rick Matlock]

I get between 120 and 200 pings normally, with no (<1%) packetloss.
Without pptp, the connection to the site is very nice (fast and low
latency).  I go through about 4 routers going from my cable modem to the
cisco border router at our site.

My first guess would not be the cable modem.  The ISP has 1 router to go
through (we own the ISP).

sounds like either the cable modem or the cable modem service is
crappy..
what results do you get when you ping the internet ip's of each? (ie
ping
cable ip from linux server, and linux ip from cable)
