I'm hoping someone here can answer this question as regards IPs etc.PPPoE connection as in any other PPP uses not DHCP protocol but uses IPCP protocol to NEGOTIATE connection parameters. Each side of connection can try to give some parameters to other and each other can take/allow them or not.
I realize this is probably a Windows related issue but I was hoping someone here could explain, in terms of networking, what could be occuring..
When connected via PPPoE, this issue occurs:
No matter the User/Pass, ipconfig pulls exactly the same IP address along w/ a 255.255.255.255 subnet.
The PPPoE connection is a dynamic connection so the IP pulled should never be the same.
Could this be a problem with the DHClient? The reason I ask is that a connection is made but no route is able to occur.
What about same IP - you can try to look in your PPPoE log for IPCP negotiation process and try to find what side offers using of this IP.
