Trouble with PPPoE over Wireless

http://forums.fedoraforum.org – Hi, I'm having a problem getting a PPPoE connection to work over a wireless network. My internet provider uses PPPoE to authenticate over the wireless network. My USB wireless device can connect to the WAP, but the PPPoE is where I start having problems. If I try to set up the PPPoE it tries to connect on the eth port instead of the wlan. How can I get my wireless connection to connect to the access point and then authenticate with my ISP using PPPoE? Thanks. (HowTos)

Hello all;

I have some investigative research to do into PPPoE and a wireless modem device. I'm have been using rp-pppoe by Roaring Penguin to start a pppoe session as a client. Whilst watching packets being sent by said program (using wireshark), I have noticed that there is no difference when the -s (synchronous mode) option is set or not.

I don't know if it is a standard way, but below is how my ISP provides Internet access.

Hello guys. My name is Ovid. I'm using Fedora 16 on my TOSHIBA C660 Laptop. I want to configure my network internet with ppp0.
