I only have experience with PPPoE and Bridged ADSL and have been advised that br2684ctl is only needed in a PPPoE configuration.
There are four different configurations that I'm aware of:
PPPoE
PPPoA
Bridged ADSL/NAT Router
ADSL Modem/Bridge
Obviously users are going to have to know their ISP's encapsulation method and VC settings, but please help me set the record straight on what the rest of the configuration needs to look like.
Once perfected, I'll start a new thread in the How-To section and add this info to the Wiki.
PPPoE (requires additional 'br2684ctl' package)
config atm-bridge
option unit 0
option encaps llc
option vpi 8
option vci 35
option payload bridged # some ISPs need this set to 'routed'
config interface wan
option ifname nas0
option proto pppoe
option username "my_username"
option password "my_password"
PPPoA
config interface wan
option ifname atm0
option proto pppoa
option encaps llc
option vpi 8
option vci 35
option username "my_username"
option password "my_password"
Bridged ADSL/NAT Router
This is the configuration I've been using (with br2684ctl), please correct me if it's wrong
config atm-bridge
option unit 0
option encaps llc
option vpi 8
option vci 35
option payload bridged # some ISPs need this set to 'routed'
config interface wan
option ifname nas0
option proto dhcp
ADSL Modem/Bridge
Need help understanding how this one works as I have no clue.
EDIT: I'm also confused as to when "option payload routed" can be used. Obviously you need to match what the ISP is configured for, so when is it used?
