Note: the leaner PPPoEoEoA + RFC2684 [obsoletes RFC1483] section 6.2 + <b>VC-MUX</b> header option (“bridged PDUs: VC-MUX”) is always more efficient than or the same as the alternative <em>LLC</em> option. The efficiency improvement depends on the length of the packets being sent and for some packet lengths the performance gain is zero. Choose 1483 bridged VC-MUX aka PPPoE VC-MUX in preference to LLC if your exchange supports it. For example, choose 1483/bridged/PPPoE VC-MUX rather than LLC if you are using a BT 21CN line.

If unsure, use PPPoE / bridged IP VC-MUX if there are no problems, otherwise ask AA support.
