PPPoE Client Interfaces Buggy & disappearing

Hi Guys,

Ok over the last few days, our 2.9rc6 server has had major issues with its PPPoE-Client connection to our ADSL provider.

About 5 times the interface has stopped working, and when trying to disable/enable the interface via winbox their has been a message saying something like “Not Implimented” or similar. Sometimes you can disable it, and re-enable, but the PPPoE-client connection does not come up again.

Normally a restart fixes the problem, but today a restart caused the Interface to disappear completely, and we had to re-add the interface. The problem is just getting worse, and it seems we cant manage a stable connection for more than a few hours now, but has previously operated for weeks without any issues at all.

We are using a standard PC box, with an IDE flash module.

Any ideas?

please upgrade to the latest version of the RouterOS v2.9rc9, then make the support output file when you see this problem and send it to support@mikrotik.com
