Indeed, I've never tried it and only recently became aware you could connect directly like that. I could see how it might be possible though. Steve

Hey @jimp, For the SG-1100, I know its an Arm box, it one of the reasons I bought it. I said arm64, as that's what bsnmpd reported, instead of Aarch64. I had a chance to install Net-SNMP on the SG-1100 and it returns ifHCInOctets and ifHCOutOctets: $ snmpwalk -v2c -c <redacted> 192.168.1.254 | grep -i -e inoctets IF-MIB::ifInOctets.1 = Counter32: 1066212313 IF-MIB::ifInOctets.6 = Counter32: 0 IF-MIB::ifInOctets.7 = Counter32: 147998 IF-MIB::ifInOctets.8 = Counter32: 0 IF-MIB::ifInOctets.9 = Counter32: 0 IF-MIB::ifInOctets.10 = Counter32: 339689700 IF-MIB::ifInOctets.11 = Counter32: 549481782 IF-MIB::ifInOctets.12 = Counter32: 121263171 IF-MIB::ifHCInOctets.1 = Counter64: 1066384951 IF-MIB::ifHCInOctets.6 = Counter64: 0 IF-MIB::ifHCInOctets.7 = Counter64: 147998 IF-MIB::ifHCInOctets.8 = Counter64: 0 IF-MIB::ifHCInOctets.9 = Counter64: 0 IF-MIB::ifHCInOctets.10 = Counter64: 339693366 IF-MIB::ifHCInOctets.11 = Counter64: 549639578 IF-MIB::ifHCInOctets.12 = Counter64: 121267407 I'll have to keep playing to make sure there is no functionality loss (OIDs returned, etc), but right now I'm happy! Thanks! David

No, no reboot required.

@muppet said in SG-1100 PPPoE Performance: @akuma1x Yes it's easy enough to buy some secondhand/commodity hardware. Anything you can find with enough network ports and an Atom C3XXX, or Intel i3/i5/i7 processors, or even some of the more recent fast Celeron and Xeon processors. Those are all good for a pfsense box. Try to stay away from the laptop-grade mobile processors, and the older Celeron J1900 stuff. Those are going to show their age and weaknesses quicker than the other ones. HP and Dell made/make some good small form factor stuff. Just make sure you can add at least 1 multi-port INTEL network card in there and you'll be all set with a nice pfsense firewall box. Jeff

Everything should be the same as any TAP bridge. You'll just have OPT and LAN on the same switch VLAN.

@Derelict thanks a lot, will look into it asap
