      tried it and that command is executed but it seems somewhere else something is creating another mpd instance or something like that, also in system log i get messages like some package is already running so not starting another instance so i believe that command is doing few other bad things than actually doing good because the situation still is same, it wont reconnect

        Perhaps we are finally getting somewhere here. Posting the real logs could help.

          the part about some other mpd starting is actually the netgraph thing which has multiple instances, ill try some more and get the logs shortly as this is a production box so need to get some work done for now

              Probably you get the error about the name since pfSense names itself the iface.
              Since mpd5 latest has that included inside probably need to check removing the name.

                inspite of that error, pppoe still doesnt reconnect, probably tearing down the interface and bringing it back up using a down and up command would solve this.

                  I know all of the network professionals are going to roll their eyes at this question.  So, forgive my ignorance.  Would a work around be to put my ADSL modem back into router mode, then put my Pfsense firewall in the DMZ with a second public IP address on it?  This would allow the modem to authenticate with PPPoE without affecting anything else.  Please be gentle with your thoughts  ;D

                        I believe I’m having this issue, and have been for some time now. I always wondered why sometimes PPP would drop, and I’d drive out to site only to do a reboot and everything works. Sometimes I’d even have people put on site reboot for me, but it wouldn’t work. Is there any update on this issue?

                        Below log is newest on top, so read in reverse.
