[Ewrt-devel] PPPOE functional?

Tue Aug 3 07:11:07 PDT 2004

Hi,

        I was looking for confirmation from others that PPPOE is functional on 
the current EWRT.

        I have two units that aren't using it that work great.

        The third unit makes a PPPOE connection - I can get to the 54G 
remotely, I can ping the client computer (XPHome) behind it, the client 
computer can ping the 54G, TCP connections that need to be masqueraded 
through the 54G get through outgoing (I can see it in my server logs) 
but then responses never get to the client computer.
        It's quite perplexing; I've checked the usual firewall suspects, etc., 
even rebuilt the WinSock stuff, as much as I hate to get my fingers 
icky with Windows guts.
        
        I've seen similar symptoms with a broken routing/masquerading setup, 
but before assuming that I wanted to get feedback from others who may 
be using PPPOE.
