Hi there,
I have an Asus WL-500gP and managed to install OpenWRT without any problems.
Now, I have struggled quite a long time getting the WAN-interface working with pppoe. I've followed the numerous hints in forums and in the corresponding wiki, but I did not manage to make it work. :-(
Since I am absolutely new to OpenWRT, I don't really know if there are (besides the obvious) nvram-settings that could affect the wan-interface.
Is it possible that someone who has a working system with Asus WL-500gP and pppoe could post a complete list of nvram-settings? Then I could check all the settings and - hopefully - find my problem.
Using FAQ and forum-topics, I have tried the following configuration without success:
wan_device=eth0
wan_ifname=vlan1
vlan1ports="0 5"
vlan1hwname=et0
wan_proto=pppoe
ppp_idletime=10
ppp_mtu=1492
ppp_passwd=XXX
ppp_redialperiod=15
ppp_username=XXX
pppoe_ifname=vlan1
I've tried numerous other ways, but since there is an infinite number of false configurations, I don't think that it is useful posting them all.
Thanks in advance
Thilo
PS. Maybe I should have pointed out that I use White Russian RC 5.
