        @stephenw10 Hi Stephen,.. well MT992 installed... and although speed test seems to have some improvements ( but this could just be time of day etc ), ..'uptime' on the other hand does not seem to be much better,... as my 1st disconnect occurred 50mins after 1st boot and connect of modem,.. logs as follows

        I see at 13:59:51 connection is lost,.. but how do I see what caused the the event...?
        Many Tx

                Huh that's interesting. I wonder if it's counting those 5 alerts as enough to reconnect even though they are not consecutive. 🤔

                Though it doesn't show the LCP: peer not responding to echo requests message that would normally indicate it being triggered. And the value there should be a max time of 60s which would never be reached.

                No you should not need any settings in the advanced options.

                If you look in /var/etc/mpd_wan.conf you will see the generated conf file used to connect. It's possible to make a custom conf file by copying that to /conf and then editing it there. The mpd daemon will use a file there in preference.

                  @stephenw10 this is my 'mpd_wan.conf' file.. credentials removed,..
                  what do you suggest I modify,..
                  If I update this file how do I force it to be used,.. ie how do I force a 'reload'

                  I see these two values,.. set link keep-alive 10 60,.. what do you suggest,. 100 300,
                  ie 5 mins....
                  Can I not just edit the primary file,.. or does this get overwritten..

                    Indeed the file in /var/etc gets overwritten at boot or whenever the config is rebuilt so you have to copy it to /conf to make permanent changes to it.

                    I would start by setting link keep-alive to something just larger to see if that has any effect so maybe: 20 120

                      Tx,..
                      Ok,.. just trying to copy file over to /conf... but insufficient privs,.. sudo does not work...
                      and from what I can read I have to use the shell window offered from the console,.. with a direct login at the h/w,.. or have I missed something..?

                        You can do it from the gui Diag > Command Prompt.

                        Then edit it from Diag > Edit File

                            Ha, hottest day of the year, clearly the best day for it. 😁

                            For reference though you can do it from the GUI or by logging in as admin.

                                Re-saving the WAN interface should do it.

                                    Aug 13 13:21:39 ppp 71373 [wan_link0] Link: DOWN event
                                    Aug 13 13:21:39 ppp 71373 [wan_link0] PPPoE: connection closed

                                    Well it doesn't appear to be LCP echo requests timing out. In each case the first thing logged is the connection closing. Hmm. Nothing in the main log at that point?

                                      @stephenw10 The Main system=>General Log looks as follows just prior to the connection lost..
                                      Just in passing what does this mean,

                                          Hmm, all that looks like it's caused by the PPPoE connection closing. Really feels like the server is closing it. Might need to turn up the logging to see it which is not something I've ever tried for PPP. Let me see...

                                            Stephen,... In desperation,... I have just tried to setup an 'original BT Modem',.. and found the credentials I was using to access the broadband servers,.. were incorrect.!!
                                            The credentials I have been using for maybe 6yrs+.... are old,..
                                            Rang BT support,.. and they supplied a completely different set of credentials, which are ( as they say ) in line with my updated line,

                                            Needless to say I am running with the new line config and credentials on pfsense,.. lets see how this pans out
                                            upload/ download is now at 60/10,. which is in line with what I recall were the speeds when i 1st went pfsense FTTC....

                                            So lets see how this pans out,... hopeful,.. but not holding my breath..
