actually this
set ipcp yes vjcomp

if set to
set ipcp no vjcomp

then it works just fine and reconnection is also fine, could any1 tell me the importance of it?

xbipin

also noticed in interfaces.inc

shouldnt line 2199 as well as 2349 both be
set ipcp no vjcomp

If you want an immediate fix, change line 2199 in the /etc/inc/interfaces.inc file on your pfsense box.

actually i tried all that but when pfsense is running and i tried editing include files or even try uploading using SSH and then try a reboot, the system gets messed up and wont boot to normal and i have no clue how to kill the web gui first then upload the changes and then restart it

gnhb

Hmmm,
That's strange. As long as you aren't clicking buttons on the WebGui while editing it shouldn't matter if you edit the interfaces.inc file while the system is running.

Did you do this? Actually, this first line is only valid for NanoBSD installs as far as I know. What install are you running?
#/etc/rc.conf_mount_rw
#vi /etc/inc/interfaces.inc
–--- make changes ----
set ipcp disable vjcomp

--- save (":wq") in vi----
Go restart pppoe connection in Status-> Interfaces

xbipin

im on nanobsd on alix and editing files using console it a bit limited so i usually downlaod the file using ssh, modify it and upload it and set the permissions again properly and reboot and then its disaster

eri--

Latest snapshots should have the change.

xbipin

thanks for the effort, works fine now

…pardon my ignorance, but how is this issue addressed?

I think I may be affected by it too

xbipin

its been solved already on 2.0 by setting compression to off so first kindly run the latest 2.0 snap then go to the wan page and simply click apply so compression can also be set to off in ur config and then try it, the patch applied was for nanobsd, no idea if its the same for full installs
