      Hi all,

      Just installed latest stable pfsense plus on my Netgate SG-5100.

      Because my isp uses PPPoE for my 1/1gb connection I would like to enable the new if_pppoe kernel, so I did.

      After enabling and rebooting I lost my WAN connection and can’t obtain an IP address anymore. Funny thing is that I tried this if_pppoe on a custom x86 box with latest pfsense CE and that was working fine!

      Any ideas? Thanks!

        Hi, I just completely removed my pppoe interface after switching to the new if_pppoe and it started to work after recreating it! Only thing I noticed is that with the new if_pppoe the device takes longer to obtain an IP/connection after a reboot f.e. compared to the old implementation.

        But everything is working now, so this can be closed! :)
