Big PPPOE Problem

RouterOS General
1

We have this kind of problem:

  1. If there is one user connected on our ap using senao sl-2611cb3+ delux
    pppoe is forking perfectly for him.
  2. When we added switch on that senao and added another pppoe (another computer) bouth clients connect but only one of them is able to pass traffic second client is after few seconds disconected.

When we put there mikrotik router 532 with senao 200mW minipci card it works perfectly on bouth clients.

PLEASE HELP?

You could fix the problem by changing the MAC setup.
(Use Lan or wan Mac addr)??

In winbox open your PPP window, click the PPPoE button. Double click your server to open it, and unselect the “One Session Per Host” box.

You can do it in the CLI by making your entry look like this:

[magicwisp@MagicWISPMT3] interface pppoe-server server> print
Flags: X - disabled
0 service-name=“MagicWISP” interface=MT32.4-1 max-mtu=1492 max-mru=1492
authentication=pap,chap,mschap2 keepalive-timeout=60
one-session-per-host=no max-sessions=0 default-profile=pppoe-profile

Thaks will try it

i have tried it and results are the same.
One client is always working and second one is able to authenticate but there`s no traffic passing thru. Is there solution for this kind of problem?

I think this is not the PPPoE problem.
Have you tried the setting without PPPoE with 2 users connected to a switch after an AP station? This is bridge problem, where AP client can not pass the second client mac address. Mikrotik will see only the first mac-address. You need to set a NAT on the wireless client (if possible) or add and small router after the wireless station. Off course, PPPoE will be done in the router, not in the client computer. If you still need authentication for the client computer, you can use PPTP.

the problem is that the client does not really bridge everything - so only one pppoe session is working, we had those problems allready
it might work when using standard ip entries, but not with pppoe packets.
i think that the tiny arp-proxys in those devices are not able to handle anythig else then standard ip, if more then one device is behind them, correctly !!

Can confirm what Valens suggested.

Had this identical issue before - also with Senaeo APs. It doesn’t pass any MAC addresses, it translates the MAC address to the MAC of the AP. Therefore, multiple clients gets to the MT with the MAC of the AP - not the MAC of the actual client.

Try a different AP. Should fix your issues.
