if_pppoe ping works but dns doesn't?

@stephenw10 Hello, sorry for the delay I have the pcap from the pppoe negociation using mpd5. Where can I upload it?

[stephenw10]

Yup you can upload it here again: https://nc.netgate.com/nextcloud/s/seG5XwkpgX5YL78

[exomic]

@stephenw10 done :)

[stephenw10]

OK great.

Were you ever able to run the dtrace command?

[exomic]

@stephenw10 yes I uploaded the file

[stephenw10]

Doh! Yup I see that.

I assume you're still seeing the same behaviour where only very small packets are passing?

[exomic]

@stephenw10 Correct

[exomic]

@stephenw10 any luck? I have another friend using the same setup and he’s gonna switch to my isp in a couple of days. Can’t wait to see if he gets the same problems.

[stephenw10]

Not yet, but the lead developer on this is away for a bit and it may need hi input.

A second data point here would be very useful I agree.

Ok so it looks like we have a bunch of input drops in if_pppoe shown in the dtrace.

Try enabling debug mode on the if_pppoe interface like: ifconfig pppoe0 debug

With those input drops it should be throwing a lot of errors there and those should give us more info.

Enabling that will throw a lot of log lines at the console so be ready to run ifconfig pppoe0 -debug to disable it again.
