      HI

      im using PfSense over years with my ISP.
      For 6 month i had to change my ISP.

      With my new provider  my PPPoE connection disconnects after a while.

      Looks like for some reason my isp dont responds to the LCP echo requests .

      so i thought my ISP has a problem and opened a call.
      They send me a Router i should use (FritzBox) and i tested the connection for about 1 week straight and no problem with the connections.

      On the PfSense i used 5 different Modems and i always get the disconnect after a while.

      No i was doing some research and found this topic https://forum.pfsense.org/index.php?topic=41061.195

      i would love to "set lcpretry 80" or turn the LCP echo request off!

      is there a ways i could do this …?

      Thank you
