PPPoA not PPPoE

Post by sophos9 »

Hi from the UK

I've just updated a WRT54GL to 1.2.1 Gargoyle. The router will be used as a wired ADSL connection however in the UK - we use PPPoA NOT PPPoE

Can someone advise how I can get the firmware working as PPPoA please?

Thanks in advance and thanks for great firmware, I'm using this for bandwidth management :)

Thanks

Right now there is no way to configure this via the Gargoyle GUI, but I believe it is supported in OpenWrt. If you search the OpenWrt forums you should be able to find instructions on how to configure this manually (by logging in on the command line with SSH, use puTTY if you're a windows user).

Great - thanks dude. Currently in UK PPPoA is all we have - I've currently setup using my exisiting router as WAN and DMZ'd the WRT54GL/DHCP Wired

Working great so far but would like to remove the additional router :)

Will take a look - thanks man
