New to RB, can't get pppoe-client working

Hi all. I’m new to MT stuff. We’ve got an RB750GL and RB751U-2HnD, OS v5.9, and I’m having the same problem on both. All I’m trying to do is setup a basic PPPoE connection, nothing fancy. I’ve followed the tutorial in the wiki and elsewhere, always with the same result. I’m starting with the default config on the RBs, and just adding the pppoe connection The pppoe session will connect fine, but the PCs connected can’t go anywhere. I’ve noticed that I CAN do dns lookups from the pcs, and the ping and traceroute tools on the RB work fine, but nothing from the PC. What am I doing wrong?

Hi,

Reset the current configuration. Once it is started, use the option remove config (don’t keep any default config)

Configure the ether1 as pppoe dialler interface. better don’t put any ip.
configure ether 2 as your local lan.
Do the nating in ip firewall.
