Hi Rich,

so I = recently tried that as well (while testing pppoe via ADSL2+, since then = I changed to VDSL2.vectoring where I have not yet tried to set up a = pppoe client on cerowrt); and also did not = succeed.

I just found a recent discussion on = the openwrt forum:
http= s://forum.openwrt.org/viewtopic.php?pid=3D257288#p257288
which might help a bit further, also I learned from a = different forum post that in the BCP38 tab of the firewall you need to = allow the modems address(range) as otherwise BCP38 will disallow = connections to the modem.
I tried to name the interface for = the modem se-modem or so, hoping that this would fall under the ipset=92s = Dave uses for the firewall and automatically allow traffic from the = non-guest networks (but since I did not get it to work that theory might = be bogus as well).

Oh, if you manage to set this up = I would love to get your recepie so the next time I play with PPPoE = I will still have access to the modem=85 = ;)

Best Regards

I'm using a Comtrend AR-5831u = DSL modem for my internet access. I've set it up as a bridge, so I have = CeroWrt 3.10.50-1 configured to supply the PPP = user/password. Everything's working fine. Almost.

The = problem I'm seeing is that my DSL line is dropping on a regular basis. = (several times per day, for ~60 seconds or so). I'm quite sure that this = is a problem with my provider (Fairpoint), because both the CeroWrt = and the DSL modem uptimes are over three weeks (as of our last power = failure) while the "DSL uptime" is 1h 37m

I note that the DSL = modem has an admin page that shows a number of stats, including ES, SES, = and UAS (which I believe are stats for "errored seconds", "severely = errored seconds", and "unavailable seconds") The two columns are = labeled "Downstream" and "Upstream".

I can = see these stats if I plug my laptop's ethernet directly into the DSL = modem and connect to its address (I've set it to 192.168.253.1) I would = like to be able to peek at these stats whenever I see an outage, or = perhaps create an InterMapper probe that retrieves the current values on = a regular basis.

- Is it possible to use a VLAN like = this?

- Is it advisable to use a VLAN like this (the DSL modem is = outside the firewall...)?

- What configuration file(s) need to be = changed? (I'm using a fairly simple configuration - see the = config-cerowrt.sh script at https://github.com/richb-hanover/Ce= roWrtScripts#config-cerowrtsh for my base setup.)

Many = thanks!
