      I have two problems that my provider requires that I can't seem to do in PFv2

      1. Is I require a null password
      2. I am required to set an IP address and subnet

      Am I able to do either?

        Both of those are highly unusual requirements for a PPPoE connection.

        Normally an ISP will assign the static IP address to you via PPPoE.

          Fair enough I will find a different way round it.

          Thanks

            Hi,
            For users with non-standard configurations such as yours, you are free to modify the auto generated config file for the pppoe connection.
