Without question, based on what I found when I initially recommended that. That's a setting needed in newer mpd versions that wasn't previously required, which is why it wasn't there already. It'll be in 1.2.1 and all future releases. http://cvstrac.pfsense.org/chngview?cn=22890 - To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Let us know if that makes any difference. Thanks for your feedback (and also to David). I couldn't try the commands yet because the device was remote and people were working, but I will keep them around in case the problems are coming back. Because since about one week, I replaced and made a full reset on the Zyxel VDSL modem/bridge, and no more issues the last 5 days and nights. So it seems it wasn't a pfsense issue after all... :) But at least I know how to debug this kind of problems the next time, merci! regards from Switzerland, Olivier - To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]

I want ask It seems we are having the same kind of issues, just "lighter": once every few day, the PPPoE also gets disconnected, and I have to click on the Reconnect Button (only once). No visible reason of the the disconnect in the logs, the VDSL line from green.ch is (and was) stable (before adding the Alix+pfSense device, bridget to a Zyxel P2802HWL-I1). pfSense Version: 1.2-Release. Still looking for a solution too... :) Activated syslog to a remote pc to be able to debug this problem if it occurs again today.

I want ask you two things are still unclear to me: 1- does pfSense automatically attempt to reconnect PPPoE itself? If not, is it possible to add auto-reconnect mechanism by using for example a script or tuning a config file? Because it is annoying when Internet connection drops and you are hundreds miles away and nobody can restart pfSense. 2- where I can read why PPPoE got disconnected? I saw no entry about it in System Logs and I'm curious to understand if there is a problem with my box or it is the ISP which renew my dynamic IP. I'm using 1.2RC4 on embedded platform. I didn't update to the final 1.2 yet, but if something related to PPPoE has been changed, tell me and I update the box, otherwise I'd prefer not to touch it at the moment. Thank you! ___ Yahoo!
