Cannot Get Bridged Modem to work with WAN PPPoE- what am I doing Wrong?
-
I too could not get this issue resolved - getting PPPOE in PFsense to connect succesfully to Dodo. Installed IPFIRE and had it all running within an hour. Its a good alternative, pity couldn't resolve this.

Hi,
I don't know how different the NB6 is from my NB5 but I had a lot of problems using Netcomm's documentation on setting the NB5 into bridge mode.
I eventually found this on Whirlpool: http://forums.whirlpool.net.au/archive/483677. It solved the problem plus gave me a way to get into the modem (through the USB port) while in bridge mode. After that the pfSense part was easy.
May be of some help.

i m with clubtelco which runs on the dodo network, until the middle of this year pfsense worked, but now it doesn't i personally spend a long time trying to solve.
i have found no matter what the settings i use in web interface or command line to change the mtu to 1460, pfsense will not connect and the log always show that that it is attempting to connect at 1496 mtu

Update: noticed a bug fixed was mentioned, so Tried the latest version of PFsense, (v2/03) and stilling getting same error
It says in log files something about a value of 1500 MTU being "too high"
anyone else having any luck here with this issue?

Just wondering if this has been resolved in the new version released Sept 2013?
Anyone tried this?

not sure if this is relevant any longer, however it appears the pfsense / dodo isp problem has been resolved.
I'm running 2.1.3, however I suspect it might be dodo that sorted things out. Looks like they allow an MRU of 1492 now, pretty sure last time I tried this (a year or more ago) they were only accepting 1500 which was causing the problems. Anyway, I hope this may help someone if they are still having issues.
