PPPoE Client on RB450G Tower Router

RouterOS General

OK I am new at this but learning so be nice :slight_smile:

I have a x86 PC on the border of the internet running a pppoe server for customer throttling, accounting etc. So far everything there seems to be working good. Here is my pinch:

The lease I am working out with the tower owner also includes internet access at the tower site.

I am going to use a RB450G at the tower site. The RB450G will be bridged mode with ether1(backhaul),ether2(ap) and ether3(ap) on the bridge. I would like to use ether5 for the tower owners internet.

Can I run a pppoe client on the same router connected through the bridge and have it provide the IP and internet access via ether5?

So far I have been unsuccessful in my tests :confused:

The pppoe client is associates fine over the bridge but I can’t for the life of me figure out what to do with it next

Everything else is working fine in my test network

Thanks!

Got it working :smiley:

I Forgot to set up the correct DNS on the RB450G. Never try to set up something new when you are fighting a nasty cold.

Now a public IP is available and ready on ether5 for them via pppoe and all they have to do is plug in. Good Stuff
