Is this a new or very old Sonicwall?
I ran into that with DSL and ended up using the $50 DSL modem to do PPPoE
ahead of the Sonicwall and put the Sonicwall on the DMZ. We couldn't get
the Sonicwall to do PPPoE reliably. I forget how we dealt with the MTU
issue.
I would have thought this would be resolved by now, that was almost 10 years
ago.
I know Cisco ASA can do PPPoE reliably (not that I'm fond of programming
them).

Subject: [AFMUG] Sonicwall and PPPoE
Has anyone worked much with Sonicwall routers? We have a corporate
client with a NSA 250MW using it as master to VPN between sites. If a
SM gets rebooted, PPPoE server gets rebooted(in middle of night), etc
the thing will never redial the PPPoE connection. Very frustrating.
Has anyone solved this? I do not have direct access to the device but
I can work with there tech.
