Hello guys, ussualy I see in pppoe active connection pppoe-0 pppoe-1 pppoe-2 pppoe-3 etc, etc at the same time, these connections are clients trying to login, but they cant do it. Wireless registrations are OK, not bad strenght, good ccq. pppoeserver problems? the configuration is the same in the RouterOS Manual.
I hope you can help me, regards…
Isn’t this a little like telling a mechanic “my car won’t start…what is the problem?”
You need to provide some configuration detail in order to get some help.
/ppp export
/ip pool export
If you are doing radius auth:
/radius export
Those are a start.
OK, sorry. Here is the output of the export command

Tell me if you need more info, thanks!
That part of the configuration looks ok. Do you see anything in the log when these are failing? Is it specific customers who are failing, or is it “random” customers? How many people are connected when this starts? What is the hardware platform?
One other thing, you may try turning off “VJ Compression” in the profile. VJ is not really intended for broadband and it can cause issues, depending on the client. This is not likely to fix your issue, but it is still a good idea. 
Thank you for reply. In log I see “pppoe-0 waiting for call”, and then “pppoe-0 terminating or disconnected” Is a random problem, no customer specific. When the RB strart failing I have aprox. 30 clients. No more clients can connect to the pppoe-server. (I have 60 clients)
Hardware: RB532 + XR2 + 48v 2A SW Power supply.
Noise floor: -96
Now is working OK ¿?¿?¿? I don’t know waht happend… Hacker attack??
Please, anybody can help me?
it’s happening again? What version of RouterOS are you using? If you are not running the latest version, upgrade to 2.9.50 or 3.2 (if you are already running 3.x).
Disable compression , VJ compression and encryption in default profile and users profile.
Enable Change MSS and Only One in default profile and users profile.
Try to run PPPoE server without service name.
I wanna try this. I’m runnung ROS 2.50. Gracias!!!
Hi ;
what is the interface working for the pppoe ? is it bridge or other interface ?
with best regards .
its work on any Ethernet or Like-Ethernet (EoIP, WLAN, Bridge,etc)
Hi again ;
I think you miss understand me , i was asking him what is the interface he is using with the pppoe server while he get the problem .
i have daughts that the bridge interface involve in this .
i am using pppoe server with the bridge interface to supply clients on the lan interface and wlan1 " Atheros AR5413 " , but only the wireless clients face problem
they still connected to the server but the internet stop then they disconnect and reconnect again to gain the internet again .
i hope this clear and i will be glad if you have an idea about such problems .
with best regards
No bridging, like in the manual. PPPoE server is running y “local” interface.
I am interested in your solution . does your problem solved ? if so , please share the solution with the forum please.
Hi ;
i stopped using the pppoe server long time ago as we have many problems with the wireless .
with the pppoe the MT disconnect the user once there is low level signal and this makes problems .
instead of it i am using DHCP sever which gives subnet mask / 30 and with this way any user can not see others and the netcut will not work .
with best regards .
