PPPoE with vlan
-
I have been trying to setup a computer for pfsense.
But wan doesn't work, i have setup PPPoE over 101 as my ISP (Telenor Denmark) has said. In the logs it says connecting to "
Anyone that can help? -
@kristian_m Please post screen shots showing the configuration of the VLAN, The PPP connection, and any logs that you are generating for the connection.

@kristian_m What is the device you're running for your PPPoE? UE? What type of device is that?
-
@rcoleman-netgate
It's usb to Ethernet adapter, i have also tried with the built in one None of them works -
@kristian_m Well, USB support in pfSense/FreeBSD is really poor.
Do you have any other hardware you can use?
-
@rcoleman-netgate i have tied to use the built-in Ethernet and it's the same but the USB to Ethernet works on lan
-
@kristian_m I would suggest trying different hardware that has multiple NICs in it.
USB NICs on pfSense are a horrible idea, especially related to throughput.

@rcoleman-netgate
But i am trying to say the Ethernet port on the computer is the same result -
I am gonna see if opensense works
-
I would expect it to work with the em port. How exactly was it configured?
Did the ppp logs show any replies from the server?
-
@stephenw10 No it won't even connect like you can see in the logs (in the photo album)
-
What is the WAN actually connected to? Some DSL modem?
It's possible the modem is already doing the VLAN tagging and you shouldn't have it configured in pfSense?
-
@stephenw10 it's connected to the router i have from the ISP it's set to bridge mode and uses cable tv. I could try without the vlan tag in pfsense
-
Yup try that. It might still be tagging WAN side in bridge mode.
-
@stephenw10 ok, will do when I get home
-
@stephenw10 it's still the same
-
Maybe the ISP requires something else like a priority tag?
-
@stephenw10 well i don't know since they don't know anything else than i need to setup username, password and it over vlan 101
-
Hmm, I'd be looking for something more basic then. Like maybe the bridge port on the router isn't the one you think it is. Or something as simple as a bad cable.
I would definitely use em rather than ue though. No way to know if VLAN tagging is working as expected on a USB NIC.
