  Yes, Calling-Station-Id....

  Try changing the Load-Balance-Key to User-Name.  And then using radtest for simple tests.  That gets you the useful debug information, without tons of EAP stuff.

  But... the Load-Balance-Key seems to work here.  I haven't heard of anyone else having issues with it.
