      Has anyone replaced their gigafast router with PfSense?

      My setup is as follows and my experience with PfSense is limited

      re0 - Wan

      re1 - Lan

      I have connected the ethernet from the FTTP wall mounted box to re0 on the PfSense machine.

      On the WAN port I have setup as a PPPOE and entered by login details and also setup a VLAN tag 911 (I was told this is the correct tag by Vodafone customer service).

      I have attempted to get this setup to work for the last few hours but cant get the port to come up

      Cant seem to find any guide that fits exactly what Im trying to do, any help/advise would be greatly appreciated!

      Regards

      Ben

        I expect you to have to create the VLAN interface on re0 (re0.911) and put the PPPoE connection on that. Is that what you've done? There may be a VLAN priority tag requirement....

          Fixed now

          Issue was it seems that I was applying the PPPOE to the WAN interface and not then assigning WAN as re0.911.

          Thank you so much for taking the time to respond!

          Regards
