OK next problem. I've posted about this on openwrt forums as well, https://forum.openwrt.org/viewtopic.php?id=63145
but I know there are quite a few openwrt users on here that might have some thoughts suggestions. Basic summary is:
- I have new TP-link box (W8980) with built-in VDSL modem
- I "think" the modem is syncing, it certainly reports it does when I plug in the cable (and the stats look sane)
- I can configure the box to setup PPPoE via ethernet port connected to BT modem
- I CANNOT seem to get it to setup PPPoE via the built-in modem (ptm0).
I kinda expected getting the VDSL modem to work at all would be the hardest task, but that pretty much worked first time. Feels like I must have a stupid config mistake as it feels like it's just a case of getting the PPPoE setup to route out through the built-in modem.
Well, if anyone has any ideas greatly appreciated.

probablu EJS is your man. Not sure if he's actually installed openwrt - but has the level of expertise that will know what to do.
Other than that, its reading the openwrt documentation, they have set up ways of doing most things in a straight forward way.
My knoweldge is more lowlevel, e.g. get the UART to come up in linux, and attached a pppd to it, with all the NATing set up in kernel ....

Thanks for the heads up, turns out it was the VLAN config that was missing. And possibly some patience.
All sorted now.
