They do (even taking time out from their vacation!). They observed that we did not attempt to negotiate mru, but none of us could see why that might cause the AC to fail to ack or nak our auth response. As we were impinging on their holiday and we had a workaround we agreed to look more deeply into it at a later date. Unfortunately we're in a catch 22 scenario because: a. Every single pppoe capable device we tested worked straight away except pppoe(4). b. No other customer has apparently had issues similar to this. We've gone with a non OpenBSD router for the pppoe link for now as userland ppp performance was too poor and quite erratic. I hope we'll have a chance to revisit this when the 3rd line techs are back in the office in the new year. Thanks very much for your time and insights. They are very much appreciated.
