      We pay for TAC Pro, but they won't help with issues when you are running the BETA releases apparently.

      We have a UK FTTP connection over PPPoE. We are using the if_pppoe backend. If our ISP (Andrews & Arnold) drops our connection, the PPPoE link won't reconnect until we either reboot the appliance, or, click Connect WAN under Status, Interfaces.

      The new if_pppoe doesn't seem to contain the Dial On Demand options that used to be available.

      Are we missing something obvious in our config?

      Log file doesn't have much to go on. The link is trying to come up, but it's never successful.

        Does it reconnect as expected using the old mpd5/netgraph?

        Is it failing at both IPv4 and IPv6?

        If you disable IPv6 does it then reconnect correctly?

        We have seen one other report from an A&A user but that failed to connect after reboot.
