      Hey all!

      Had a recent upgrade to FTTP - 300/50 package via BT

      I have sone of the smaller Huawei ONT's currently set up with the standard Smart Hub 2 - (which I aim to ditch). With that said I plan to change it up to PFSense Box (HP T730) hanging the WAN via the BT Huawei ONT. With LAN being output to a AX88U running as an AP.

      Running into some issues with WAN setup from Huawei ONT's to the PFSense. It connects and able to get an successful connection including the AX88U getting an external connection. But as soon as I run a speed test/download the PFSense crashes requiring a hard re-set so cannot get any logs/further info.

      Would appreciate any advise from anybody if anyone ran into the same issues - set up for WAN is exactly the same as this other than using the BT username & password - https://myworldofit.net/?tag=fttp. My suspicion its to do with the MTU - tried 1492/1500/1508 but same results every time - bricks and then have to force restart the PFSense box.

      Would appreciate any advice :)

        Evening I have a similar setup for BT 300/50 FTTP:

        The Huawei ONT I have (smaller version with the backup battery all in one box) will accept 1500 MTU for link (so 1508 with PPPoE header)
        I am using an Intel NIC in the pfSense box (Old HP NC364T 4 Port Card) had a lot of issues with onboard Realtek chipsets previously.

        pfSense 2.5.2

        WAN Config below:

        Hope that helps with your config.

          Mmm, nothing on the WAN connection should cause a crash.

          Exactly how unresponsive is it when that happens? Nothing at the console even?

            @elu_one said in BT FTTP & PFSense:

            Realtek

            @elu_one Thank you for both for your reply - this is exactly how I have set up the WAN interface with PFSense box

            (Having a slight senior moment) - I have a T730 Not the T720 which does have the Realtek RTL8111HSH Realtek NIC on board that currently handing the WAN connection to the Openreach ONT - reading around it it may be the causing the issue.

            I'll have a fiddle some of the settings and see if I can set the NC364T 4 Port Card to handle the WAN and LAN.

            @stephenw10 - unresponsive to a point where I browse/run a speed test pretty much everything grings to a hold/bricks and I am booted out the WebGUI access and DP link looked up to a monitor doesn't provide any output to what is going on and cant run any commands.

            My current suspicion is the onboard Realtek NIC issue casing the system to brick fully with LAN being handled by HP NC364T.

            Any advise on what NIC card might be better to use other than the HP NC364T 4 Port Card thats already plugged in incase thats the issue as?

              @h0110 Do you have any additional packages installed that might be adding to the overhead? (Snort, Suricata, pfBlocker-NG...)

              Also I do try to avoid Realtek cards as I have had issues in the past with behaviour under heavy load.

              How is the CPU/Mem usage on the pfSense machine with general use?

                No additional packages installed, just a bog standard fresh install of the latest software.

                The only settings I tweaked was the gateways, changing the gateways to IPV4 & IPV6 to WAN_PPOE.

                Any advice on low profile NICs?

                I was thinking to purchase a low profile Intel i350-T4 and set WAN & LAN to be handled by card of cause leaving 2 ports free hopefully to be used by VLAN's (which was my initial plan)

                  So currently you have the on-board Realtek NIC and a USB NIC as WAN and LAN?

                  I wouldn't recommend either of those! My money would be on the USB NIC causing the issues though.

                  If you have the console already connected during the test does it show any error?
                  Does it still respond to Ctl+t? That will often respond when nothing else does.

                  Any Intel based NIC will be far better than those. You don't need separate ports for VLANs, those can be on the LAN port as long as you have a VLAN capable switch.

                  Steve

                    My Intel card is an old second hand one based on the 82571EB chipset so it uses the em driver.
                    You should easily be able to pick up a newer one that is supported by the igb driver.

                    Port wise a two port will do you fine if you are using VLANs with a capable switch as @stephenw10 suggested.

                      Hey all,

                      Just wanted to post an update - in essence still very puzzled :(

                      Tried running the WAN - PPPoE with the NC364T HP card hooked up to the Huawei ONT - settings exactly as above from @elu_one .

                      LAN being handled by NC364T HP Card as well -> Hooking it up directly to a PC or the AX88U AP leads to the same result - as soon as any load i.e. Speedtest/fast.com leads to a hard crash - requiring a reset.

                      I did set up the AX88U as modem/router - with everything working perfectly. Only real settings to note that MTU & MRU - are at 1492.

                      Still very puzzled but going to try a completely fresh PFSense install and give it another bash with MTU & MRU being set at 1492.

                      Any advice or NIC recommendations would be appreciated :-)

                          @h0110 I would try disabling dpinger as I have had issues with the next hop being incorrectly reported by my setup with PPPoE. It may also be incorrectly reporting route is down when the link is saturated and its replies are getting delayed in the queue.

                          Also the settings I posted should be negotiating an MTU of 1500 for the PPPoE link to help reduce fragmentation. (Will be shown in logs as "rec'd PPP-Max-Payload '1500'" if accepted by the ONT)

                          (System Menu > Routing > Edit Gateway)

                            Is that the actual gateway IP you get?

                            You might try disabling the 'gateway monitoring action' in System > Routing > Gateways > Edit gateway. With only one gateway that doesn't do much anyway but will be triggered be all those packet loss alarms.

                            That could be a symptom or a cause.

                              Thank you so much both for your input but still no luck, disabled the gateway monitoring & action on both IPV4 & IPV6. Don't suppose you're at all free for a FaceTime/WhatsApp call as I've spent the last 5 hours fiddling with the settings and coming very close to me ripping my hair out.

                              With the changes made above able to complete a download test/ping/access websites but crashes as soon as it comes to upload test etc.

                                sendto error 65 is no route to host:
                                https://docs.netgate.com/pfsense/en/latest/troubleshooting/gateway-errors.html#sendto-error-65

                                Since this is PPPoE and that's a private IP address it implies the ppp connection is dropping. That should be point to point between your IP and the gateway so a route should always exist. Check the ppp log and the routing tables.

                                Did you try entering ctl+t when it seems to stop responding?

                                  Based on the the advice above from the other two members sendto error 65 has now disappeared, along with the 172.16.12.222 gateway IP.

                                  Ctrl + T leads to zero response and requires a hard re-start :(

                                  I'm at a complete loss - is it the HP X4 NIC? The ONT? Software bugs?

                                  I might explore at looking at different router software to see if same issues come up

                                    @h0110 Can I just check what you config is for LAN/WAN?
                                    More to check what NIC drivers and options may be in use.

                                    So from ifconfig for myself: (All interfaces using em driver - Some IP data obscured)

                                      You are only not seeing that because you disabled gateway monitoring. I would suggest leaving that enabled and just disable the monitoring action so you are still logging the gateway response.
                                      You might also set the monitoring IP to something else since BTs gateways do not have to respond to ping at all. 8.8.8.8 is commonly used.

                                      If it won't respond to ctl+t at the console that is a hard lockup. I would be looking at a hardware issue at that point. Your setup is not unusual.
