      Use a snapshot from Sept 16th or later. That will fix issue #1.

      Not sure about the others.

        ghnb should fix #3.
        The others should be fixed on new snapshots.

          I have another pppoe-problem:

          Looks like every time the pppoe-connections gets dropped by the provider and pfsense reconnects the connection is not made properly. Looks like the WAN gets a new ip address and everything seams to be fine, but it is not possible to send data over the WAN.

          I setup pppoe resets to everyday, but still a death WAN connection in the morning, after reboot the WAN works as expected.

          Running build from 9.Sept. on ALIX-board.

          Bye,
          eweri

            more info:

            after a pppoe-reset the WAN connection stops working - it works again after a reboot of the router

                Dear Eweri, and everyone.
                I've had the same problem.
                I discovered the cause very difficult.
                The wan interface settings "Advanced and MLPPP", I click on the line.
                Name service line "Configure a NULL Service name" When I click I saw improvement.
                I think some service providers do not provide this information automatically Pfsense wan interface can not run again.
                Not experienced this problem as well Pfsense beta1. After beta 3 has changed.

                Best Regards.

                  hi,

                  adding dns servers is working now.

                  but the problem that eweri reported still exists and it's a pain in the a***

                  After the connection has been reset by the periodic reset, it is re-established correctly, but until I do a manual "filter reload" there is no traffic going through it….

                  and the Dyndns accounts are still not updated after a pppoe reset or after a complete reboot.

                    Hm, i setup a service name so this could not be the problem.

                    I setup the router to reboot at 3:15 in the morning but yesterday in the evening the connections to the internet was lost and after a power cyle today in the morning the connection was up and running again. I think it was a power cycle - i am not on site.

                    So why does a power cycle work but not a reboot? Maybe I setup cron wrong - just looking - right crontab was empty :-( stupid me - think I forgot to make fs writable before setting up a crontab for root.

                    This is what I setup now for user root:
                    15 3 * * * /sbin/shutdown -r now

                    Should work right?

                    Bye,
                    eweri
