      Hi,

      first i'm sorry for my english.

      I 've a problem to connect my wan interface with pppoe. I succeed to connect it with other router.

      My isp don't send me dns during pppoe negotiation, and don't send gateway address.

      I receive only my Public IP address.

      during ppp negotiation, i have two error message in my log (i've change my public's IP by 1.1.1.1 for security reason)

      this log is issue from a test server with version 2.0.2 and only one wan connexion

      have the same error with my production's server with version 2.0.3 who have two wan connexions, the main is routed and the second with pppoe not working.

      if someone can help me to debug this problem, i will very happy

      best regards

        My isp don't send me dns during pppoe negotiation, and don't send gateway address.

        I think you need to ask your ISP why they send IP address of 0.0.0.0 in Configure Request #1 and DNS addresses of 0.0.0.0

          Thanks for your answer.

          I've open a ticket with my isp, but he can't tell me for now if he can change his configuration.

          Is there another solution to contourn this isp's default configuration?

            Which ISP? What equipment is between the pfSense box and the Internet? What sort of link are you using - ADSL?

              ISP is sewan. A french provider who use sfr network.

              The link is a classical ADSL (vpi:8, vci:35).

              We have use different modem (dlink, tplink, thomson) with brige mode. We have always the same error.

              When we use a router (thomson or bintec), when the pppoe connection is mounted there's a defaut route added with no gateway and a route 0.0.0.0 with our public ppoe's ip.

              I tested too with an ubuntu server and the pppoe daemon intergated. I succeed to connect but the daemon log said that the ppoe's server don't give a good gateway (0.0.0.0), and he configure a false gateway in his defautroute. And add another route 0.0.0.0 with pulbic ppoe's ip like other router.

              Is there a solution to tell pfsense router to add a defaut route with the public's ip?
