Talk:Long Reach Ethernet

Early question
I'm having trouble telling the difference between LRE and xDSL. Based on some of the reading I've done, it sounds to me as if LRE is just a high-speed variant of xDSL. Can someone explain the difference? Is there a difference?

If anything, it seems like a variant of SDSL that instead of using PPPoE, it just uses, well, E (Ethernet). Am I wrong?

 * xDSL is the generic term. This is one variant the used an Ethernet-like packet framing. I am looking to see how it relates to the 10BaseS product that Infineon had - same or similar? W Nowicki (talk) 01:33, 28 August 2011 (UTC)
