Hi Rich, so I recently tried that as well (while testing pppoe via ADSL2+, since then I changed to VDSL2.vectoring where I have not yet tried to set up a pppoe client on cerowrt); and also did not succeed.
I just found a recent discussion on the openwrt forum: https://forum.openwrt.org/viewtopic.php?pid=257288#p257288 which might help a bit further, also I learned from a different forum post that in the BCP38 tab of the firewall you need to allow the modems address(range) as otherwise BCP38 will disallow connections to the modem. I tried to name the interface for the modem se-modem or so, hoping that this would fall under the ipset’s Dave uses for the firewall and automatically allow traffic from the non-guest networks (but since I did not get it to work that theory might be bogus as well). Oh, if you manage to set this up I would love to get your recepie so the next time I play with PPPoE I will still have access to the modem… ;) Best Regards Sebastian On Dec 6, 2014, at 16:23 , Rich Brown <[email protected]> wrote: > I'm using a Comtrend AR-5831u DSL modem for my internet access.
