      Your mpd_wan.conf looks like mine, except I don't use these options:

      set link no shortseq

      set link no acfcomp

      set link no protocomp

      Have you tried unsetting them?

        Hi clarknova,

        yeap i tried that too :(

        I also just updated it to todays snapshot
        2.0-BETA4
        built on Sat Aug 7 04:21:34 EDT 2010

        But the log still says the same but this time wan_link0 is the one connected and wan_link1 is trying to connect:

          I'm stumped. Maybe you could post screenshots of your PPPs page with the personal info obscured?

            I am having this same problem. I work for an ISP in ontario that offers multilink ( NetAccess ). Normally, we would use a Cisco Router ( 1811 ) or I would use Zeroshell or Tomato. Those work fine. In pfSense the link never bundles.

            Here is the log from pfSense:

                Hi Clarnova,

                I'm attaching a screen shot of my inteface assigment,
                my PPPs edit page looks just like the one from allanbutton

                Thanks,

                  Well, everything looks correct to my limited knowledge. I wish I knew more about troubleshooting pppoe issues, but mine has always just worked, fortunately for me.

                  There are some on this forum who know vastly more about it than I do. You may want to PM gnhb and point him to this thread if he doesn't chime in in the next few days.

                    Hi Guys,
                    Well, I'm not sure what's happening here. As you may know, pfSense is using the mpd5 application for PPP (MLPPP), PPPoE, PPtP and L2tP connections, so the mpd-5.5 code is the issue here. I didn't write that code, so my ability to help is limited. However, I search for the error message text in the mpd-5.5 source code. This is in the mpd-5.5/src/bund.c file.

                    
	  if (b->n_up > 0 &&
	  (b->peer_mrru == 0 || lcp->peer_mrru == 0 || lcp->want_mrru == 0)) {
    	    Log(LG_BUND, ("[%s] Can't join bundle %s without "
		"multilink negotiated.", l->name, b->name));
	    return (0);
	}

                    It looks like the issue has to do with the mrru negotiation. I didn't expose the MRRU as a setting in the pfSense UI, so the negotiation is all going on behind the scenes. I also found this http://www.dslreports.com/forum/r21715415-FreeBSD-and-the-latest-MLPPP-issues which is also talking about difficulties with the mrru negotiation, but the error is slightly different.

                    Maybe the problem is the same as what they are seeing in the link above. Essentially, mpd5 won't allow MRRU less than 1500 and your ISP is trying to set MRRU less than 1500.

                    elsewhere in mpd-5.5/src/bund.c

                    
	/* Configure the bundle */
	b->pppConfig.bund.enableMultilink = (lcp->peer_mrru && lcp->want_mrru)?1:0;
	/* ng_ppp does not allow MRRU less then 1500 bytes. */
	b->pppConfig.bund.mrru = (lcp->peer_mrru < 1500) ? 1500 : lcp->peer_mrru;
	b->pppConfig.bund.xmitShortSeq = lcp->peer_shortseq;
	b->pppConfig.bund.recvShortSeq = lcp->want_shortseq;
	b->pppConfig.bund.enableRoundRobin =
    	    Enabled(&b->conf.options, BUND_CONF_ROUNDROBIN);

                    The ISP is rejecting SHORTSEQ and the requested MRRU value of 2048 in the third, fourth and fifth lines from the top of the log, but the ISP is not requesting an alternate MRRU value, so it looks like the MRRU negotiation is just dropped, leaving mpd5 with all MRRU values set to 0, and thus the error.

                    Please get confirmation from the ISP(s) about what MRRU value they are requesting for the link. If it's less than 1500, there's your problem.
                    If their MLPPP implementation is rejecting pfSense's MRRU value but isn't offering an MRRU value in the negotiation, then that causes a problem for mpd5. Just find out what their MRRU value they are assuming for the link if their PPP code isn't requesting one in the negotiation.

                    It looks like we might need to expose the MRRU setting in the GUI, and possibly also patch the mpd5 source (which Ermal can do) to allow MRRU values less than 1500.

                    Please get info from the ISP first.

                    Thanks,
                    GB

                      AFAIK it does not make sense to have MRRU less than mru!

                      From Mpd manual:

                      The set link mtu command sets the maximum transmit unit (MTU) value for the link. This is the size of the largest single PPP frame (minus PPP header) that this link will transmit, unless the peer requests an even lower value. The default value is 1500 bytes.

                      The set link mru command sets maximum receive unit (MRU) value for the link, which is the size of the largest single PPP frame (minus PPP header) that this link is capable of receiving. The default value is 1500 bytes.

                      If PPP multilink is negotiated on a link, then these values are less important, because multilink allows PPP frames themselves to be fragmented, so a PPP frame up to MRRU bytes can always pass through no matter how small the MTU is in a particular direction.

                      Probably try forcing your MRU to 1500 bytes and try again. After all that is the whole point of MLPPP.
                      Though it seems like you need to provide a MRRU value in config.

                        I followed up with my ISP

                        MRRU is negotiated first at 2048
                        and later on negotiated and accepted at 1524

                        MTU is done at 1492

                        I have attempted to set MTU at 1500 but the problem stayed to be the same

                        So I wonder if the MRRU of 1524 too low or failing somewhere else.

                        Any Ideas?

                        Thanks

                          try setting MRU to 1500 not MTU to 1500!

                            Hi ermal,

                            I'm sorry it was a typo, what I meant was

                            MRRU is negotiated first at 2048
                            and later on negotiated and accepted at 1524

                            MRU is done at 1492

                            I have attempted to set MRU at 1500 but the problem stayed to be the same

                              I belive you should ask the ISP what those values should be.
                              And enter them in your config for testing. For MRRU you have to edit the file manually i think.

                                I just made two commits to the source tree, so future builds should have these features.

                                1. MRRU is exposed in the GUI so you can set it there now.

                                2. If you copy the mpd_wan.conf (or mpd_optX.conf) file generated by pfSense from the /var/etc/ directory on the pfSense box to the /conf directory (keeping the SAME file name), you can tweak that file manually and pfSense will use it for the link configuration instead of what's stored in the pfSense configuration data (config.xml). So you can massage it (in /conf ) as much as you want, and then just delete it when you're done with it.

                                  Where are we with this? Any improvements, changes, or more testing?

                                    Hi gnhb,
                                    I'm going to give this a try over the weekend. I will let you know.
                                    Thanks!

                                      Would the procedure mentioned earlier in this thread be applicable for setting up single link MLPPP as well?
