When the connection times out mpd4 just won't reconnect.. Been there .. This (mpd3.x) setup works flawlessly (without reconnection problems): #mpd.conf pppoe: new -i ng0 pppoe PPPoE set iface addrs 192.168.0.1 192.168.0.2 set iface route default set iface disable on-demand set iface idle 0 set bundle disable multilink set bundle authname secret set link no acfcomp protocomp set link disable pap chap set link accept chap set link mtu 1492 set link keep-alive 10 60 set ipcp yes vjcomp set ipcp ranges 0.0.0.0/0 0.0.0.0/0 open iface #mpd.links PPPoE: set link type pppoe set pppoe iface rl0 set pppoe service set pppoe disable incoming set pppoe enable originate ## mpd4 --version ## Version 4.3 # (no reconnect) #mpd.conf PPPoE: # new PPPoE PPPoE new -i ng0 PPPoE PPPoE set iface route default set iface disable on-demand set iface idle 0 set ipcp yes vjcomp set ipcp ranges 0.0.0.0/0 0.0.0.0/0 set bundle disable multilink ## set bundle disable noretry No, you need this one .. or at least, it's what worked for me. From my mpd.conf, with comments I added when I was also getting redial to work: # without, 'noretry' was ENABLED (so no redial!) set bundle disable noretry and # without, 'Max redial:no redial' (-1); 0 = 'Max redial:unlimited' set link max-redial 0 set auth authname secret set link no acfcomp protocomp set link disable pap chap chap-msv1 chap-msv2 eap set link accept chap-md5 chap set link keep-alive 5 30 set link max-redial 0 open #mpd.links PPPoE: set phys type pppoe set pppoe iface rl0 # set pppoe service whatever set pppoe disable incoming set pppoe enable originate [..] Sep 24 20:43:53 secret mpd: [PPPoE] LCP: Down event Sep 24 20:43:53 secret mpd: [PPPoE] LCP: state change Closed -- Initial Thats it (the problem), after timeout no retry attempt is made ! Yep. # quick fix: Manual open command for bundle PPPoE Yes, that works fine until you lose the link :) I have made some attempts before but had no time to go in depth until now.. Settings I played with so far although without any progress whatsoever are: set bundle disable noretry# dumped - no effect set link max-redial 0# default is -1 and 0 - redial indefinitely Hmm, well 'set bundle disable noretry' is what worked for me here. Are you sure you restarted mpd afresh after changing that? I recall having found something in update/changelog notes regarding the default value having changed for this, and after showing numerous values via console. I'm kind of lost right now so any help would be appreciated.. And I do like mpd 4.x new features (ipv6cp etc) A LOT btw ;) Here's my working mpd.conf; note that I'm still on mpd-4.1 though, fwiw, otherwise it's little different from yours.
