What exactly do you mean by "and by sysctl for the fullspeed"? I'm running kernel pppoe myself on an old pIII box. Of course I had to take care of the mtu "issue", but never touched any sysctl variable. Please enlighten me. hi sorry i talk about this ( not mtu ) net.inet.tcp.mssdflt=1440 this sysctl have to the same value like this at firewall rule scrub on $ext_if all max-mss 1440 you need both ! if don4t setup this you get trouble with connection to some websites and some other services this are more confortable with the userland pppoe holger > ( i think this is the biggest diffrence to the userland pppoe ) > > i work with this setup since months with any kind of trouble. > > holger Regards, ahb
