Hi,

I am new EFW, I have recently installed EFW. When I tried to connect to internet thru PPOE, it failed to connect. My RED interface is detected and up. When I use the same MODEM & cable with IPCOP firewall, it works fine. I have one question, do we need to use the cross over cable to connect between modem and RED interface?. Pls let me know if I am missing anything during network configuration.

Thanks in advance.

Regards
Yunus

hi,

according to the endian's guide 2.3 you probably need a crossover cable.
regards,

ad

PPPoE
    You want to operate a Ethernet adapter that is connected via an Ethernet crossover cable to an ADSL modem. Note that this option is only needed if your modem uses bridging mode and requires your firewall to use PPPoE to connect to your provider. Pay attention not to confuse this option with the ETHERNET STATIC or ETHERNET DHCP options used to connect to ADSL routers that handle the PPPoE themselves.

Hi, I tried cross cable. It did not work either. Any other advice.

Stopping Uplink 'main'
Notify uplinks daemon about status change of uplink 'main'. Status id FAILED
Notify uplinks daemon: [  OK  ]
Uplink 'main' status: 'OFFLINE'
ERROR: Could not shut down link 'main'
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/bin/setdefaultgw", line 62, in ?

  File "/usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages/uplinksdaemon/hooks/setdefaultgw.py", line 145, in setDefaultGateway
  File "/usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages/uplinksdaemon/hooks/setdefaultgw.py", line 129, in getDefaultUplink
uplinksdaemon.uplinks.interfaces.NoMainUplinkException: There is no working uplink. No default gateway will be set!

Hope to hear from you guys...
