PPPoE

machare — Mon, 29 May 2023 14:01:24 GMT

I have not managed to get my OPNsense router to connect to my Plusnet VDSL service via an Openreach HG612 using PPPoE.

I have a Zyzel router which can connect via this HG612

Is anyone able to advise on how OPBsense should be configured to make this connection? Googling I have found that others have also had this porblem.

Alternatively is it possible to have my Plusent service changed to use a different connection method via the HG612 such as DHCP?

Also you will have to either disable gateway monitoring or change the IP used for monitoring as the PN gateway won't respond to pings , see https://community.plus.net/t5/Broadband/PFSense-Connection-Issues/m-p/1916297

I eventually got this to work after reverting to an earlier configuration.
