If you remember, let me know how you make out... If you find out anything new,
let me know...
I'm still having a problem that I don't know how to resolve just yet...

I have WinPoet installed on a Windows 98 machine.... My Freebsd machine is my
Gateway...
Well, occasionally, I'll lose the connection to verizon...
If I reset/reboot the gateway and modem... sometimes, nothing happens, still no
connection...
That's when I have to use the Windows 98 PC to establish the connection...
afterwards I just switch patch cables and my network seems fine...

I'm still in the process of diagnosing what works and what doesn't... You
mileage may vary, tax and title extra, void where prohibited... :)

It looks like you are using PPPoE, not just PPP. Or are they same thing?

Thanks,

I'm using 4.3 RC1 -- using ppp to connect to Verizon ADSL...
you may have to recompile your kernel

"You need to rebuild your kernel with these options:

#       PPPoE options
options         NETGRAPH
options         NETGRAPH_PPPOE
options         NETGRAPH_SOCKET

hth,

Hello,

* I posted this question to freebsd-newbies. But I got no reply.

This is first question to this news group. I am setting FreeBSD as my
gateway to internet for my home network. I got several resources over the
net. But I am little bit confused which one to use.

I am connecting Verizon ADSL. It is ADSL connected to one of Ethernet card
of FreeBSD box.
1) Should I use PPP or PPPoE?
2) For home networking, should I use IPFW & NATD or ppp's NAT facility?

Your answer will save tremendous time.

Thanks in advance.
/Jaeho Lee
