PPPOE Login Lock
-
for german readers: http://forum.pfsense.org/index.php/topic,49444.0.html
hello,
for days i am now trying to setup a DSL pppoe connection with pfsense. but i allways get an error about a "login lock".
i called my local provider and asked him to remove the lock, which occures after 9 wrong login attempts with the wrong password.
who knows how to avoid this? why can this happen? does pfsense try to connect bevore i setup the pppoe username + login?
is there a difference between the two setup options: interface(em1)->wan->pppoe OR interface->ppp->pppoe->em1/wan ?
i tried "Configure a NULL Service name"
thanks in advance.

after doing some further research i found out that the wrong password attemps happen near the time of the periodic reset.
manual reconnects do not cause this behaviour.
i will now try to capture a periodic rest with wireshark.
