Show the system logs please?
-
its the same as before but mayb a vr1 down is additional but in all cases it still doesnt reconnect untill a reboot

i reported the same to freebsd mailing list as well as the mpd bug list but there is no outcome, mpd developer blames pfsense for it and the mailing list just recommended some settings which didnt work and ppl left the topic down the list and forgot about it
-
Failing that, give this a try: Edit usr/local/sbin/ppp-linkdown and comment out or remove this line (keep an unaltered copy around though so you can restore the copy if it doesn't help)
/usr/sbin/ngctl shutdown $1:This worked for me! Sorry it took this long for me to be able to test this.
It appears that the change to that file did survive a reboot, but will it survive an upgrade (can I just say I'm so happy that 2.0 is final)? Better yet, here's to hoping this can be fixed for 2.1.

doesnt still work for me, while ur at it, can u test without using a switch between pfsense and ur isp modem etc?
-
I can try that but I can't make any guarantee about timeline, as this is a production system.
-
take ur time
-
if adding a switch does make it work along with the patch then i would need to replace my existing switch instead of buying a dedicated one just to make pppoe reconnect in which case can some1 recommend me the cheapest 10/100mbps switch with VLAN support or would it be possible to use one switch without vlan and use 6 ports for LAN and 2 ports for pppoe (1 from pf wan to switch and 1 from isp modem to switch).
im just trying to avoid using a dedicated switch simply for pppoe and even though if there is a power failure, it still wont reconnect untill pfsense is rebooted
or to make things easier, im ready to pay $50 if some1 could simply make me a patch which would detect the unsuccessful pppoe reconnects for about 5mins or so and then reboot pfsense, i have cron package installed and running

I had 30 minutes and came back to this and looking at the code i have another option for you xibpin.

how do i upload the edited file, i tried using winscp but i guess there r some commands i need to run to make the system go out of read only mode, could u be kind enough to provide those?
-
- ssh into the box
- /etc/rc.conf_mount_rw
- Do what you want with WinSCP or use you favorite editor
- /etc/rc.conf_mount_ro
- Reboot.

tried it, still the same, no luck :(

any luck?
-
still no fix for this
-
Have your tried pfsense 2.1-DEVEL just in case the latest mpd 5.6 improves things?
-
havent tried it coz its not much in a usable state currently for light production, mayb later
