Is HEAD always stable enough to at least avoid bricking the router? I note that there’s also some enthusiasm for LEDE, but I don’t think that all installs of homenet work.

That’s pretty much where I got to for pppoe, although I wasn’t (still amn’t?) confident that I understand what ‘interface’ does within OpenWRT, especially if/how it stacks up use of different ifname’s within /etc/config/network and /etc/config/wireless. I have noticed that WAN/LAN and WAN6 have special meanings: WAN6 is not aware of all protocols, for instance. There are also oddities such as WAN_6 which seem to appear. I believe that the _orig_ifname is an artifact of Luci. But I could be wrong. > > > Again, I suggest moving to head. You'll find more mature code. Ok. And clearly hnetd in particular will have moved on. Any insight into how I can get the hnetd use of dhcp to send the clientid and vendor class identifiers (options 61 and 60) as these are used by my isp to establish the connection? I think that they also have some timing constraints relative to dhcpv6 exchange. > > Ciao! > > -- > > Massimiliano Stucchi > MS16801-RIPE > Tim _______________________________________________ homenet mailing list homenet@ietf.org https://www.ietf.org/mailman/listinfo/homenet
