Can't connect with pfSense PPPoE config with DG834 in bridge mode

[#1]

Hi,
Successfully migrated onto Plusnet this morning. All good using my DG834 in router+modem mode (DGTeam firmware). However, on the old O2 network I used the DG834 in modem mode and set the pfSense to pick up my 'static' IP. I appreciate that was easy on O2 as they used IPoA.
Now, as I say my Plusnet ADSL connection is good in normal 'router' mode. I've put it into modem only mode, it can still sync fine, and I've configured my pfSense box with PPPoE connection and username/password info. But it just won't connect nor pick up the IP address from Plusnet. Can't figure out why, as I believe others have this working OK? Officially the connection is supposed to by PPPoA, but I hear that unofficially as it's basically a BT circuit underneath I should be able to use PPPoE on it.
What am I doing wrong? Does anyone else Plusnet DSL, the DG834 and pfSense in this config?
Thanks,
Simon

Thank you. I seem to be doing everything already suggested there, apart from the fact that my connection is in vc mode rather than llc. I assume that's the case whether it's either PPPoA or PPPoE...?

We have the same setup at the office, the modem needs to be in LLC mode for pfSense to make the PPPoE connection.

Thank you very much! This was it
Don't know why, but PPPoE is LLC and PPPoA is VC Mux.
