Hi,

Recently I have heard of EUBA and have decided to have a look into it. From what I have read it is Ethernet over copper lines (unsure of this), is this correct? Also, I have a couple of questions about it:
1. What is it?
2. Where is it available?
3. Are the speeds faster than ADSL2+?

If someone could answer those questions that would be great.

Thanks

EUBA is ADSL2+ on the Chorus network.
BUBA is ADSL1 and usually congested.
Enhanced, Basic bundled bitstream access.

BUBA can run ADSL2+ EUBA is just run over their network differently and more efficiently.

So is EUBA faster than ADSL2+? Or is it just ADSL2+ with PPPoE?

Last time i read up its just ADSL2+

EUBA is the UBA product offering delivered over Ethernet rather than ATM.

Both ADSL, ADSL2+ and VDSL2 can be delivered as a EUBA product. ADSL and ADSL2+ can be delivered over ATM depending on the ASAM/DSLAM that it's connected to.

Most ISP's would have transitioned existing UBA customers to EUBA where they are serviced by an ISAM that supports EUBA.

Whether or not you use PPPoE depends on your ISP and modem supporting this. EUBA supports PPPoE with VLAN10 tagging on ADSL2+ but most hardware and ISPs won't support this, instead they still use PPPoA with no VLAN tagging. VLAN10 and non VLAN10 tagged traffic are delivered over different VLANs to your ISP.
