Add 'disable lqr' to your ppp.conf file. What is happening is that you've got LQR (link quality reporting) enabled and the remote machine isn't properly handling these packets. Since responses aren't being generated, ppp thinks you've got a bad connection and drops the connection. I've had to do this for all of the PPPoE links that are managed by FreeBSD servers - and have had no problems since! -- Matt Emmerton ----- Original Message ----- From: "Geir Råness" <geir@dropzone.as> To: <freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG> Sent: Wednesday, March 06, 2002 8:49 PM Subject: pppoe and so on ? Hi A couple of times now i have been trying to get pppoe to work on freebsd system. Something that works fine, all to i start nat ur i do an heavy job... I have seen many strange things happend, if often get disc when i cvsup to stable (i get disc every 5 min or so) I get disc when i download lots of txt files, (also something that happends with cvsup, almost the same problem) When i nat the connection i cant be online longer thant max 10 min before i get disc. Note all these times my alcatel modem stalls, and i have to pull out the power on it. Latley i have also seen a couple of funny messages in ppp.log, like : Mar 7 00:11:51 pulz ppp[90451]: Phase: deflink: ** Too many ECHO LQR packets lost ** But dont come here and say its the hardware or its a simple packetloss... It runs great on all other oses, but i only trust freebsd as an gateway... Also i have heard of others that have the same problem. And no my conf files are correct, i have also tried a bunch of configs by others modified for my juse ofcourse.
