Yep, if that is in there then you have all you need to determine who is
using it. I can understand some people wanting to authenticate via
NAS-Port-Type, but quite frankly i'd just say bill them if they use (sort
of the sollution livingston recomends for multiple logins) after the fact
:)

Very good point. But I mostly see from this list most isp's have
bought one or two pm3's to 'test' and plan to upgrade all older
analog evetually. I dunno about everyone else, but if you have 400 lines
to upgrade all at once (every 6-18 months the way this industry works) you
certainly don't jump into buying more than you absolutely need to support
the current trend. We see better connections on our non-analog lines for
some customers than to our pure-ditital lines, sounds stupid but thanks to
some of the smaller NRBOC's out there you gotta deal with 'crap'.

My bad, I was refering to the NAS-Port attribute, which people want to see
digital connections (x2/56kflex) vs straight v.34 (which I
thoughtlessly dubbed analog).
