      I'm trying to connect my pfsense to the network using pppoe. I have the username and password copied from my isp's router but pfsense doesn't want to connect.

      This is in logs for ppp:

      Jun 1 17:05:59 ppp [wan_link0] Link: reconnection attempt 13
      Jun 1 17:05:57 ppp [wan_link0] Link: reconnection attempt 13 in 2 seconds
      Jun 1 17:05:57 ppp [wan_link0] LCP: Down event
      Jun 1 17:05:57 ppp [wan_link0] Link: DOWN event
      Jun 1 17:05:57 ppp [wan_link0] PPPoE connection timeout after 9 seconds
      Jun 1 17:05:48 ppp [wan_link0] PPPoE: Connecting to ''

      and this is tcpdump on the interface:
