So this was an error on my part  - sorta.


The CPE has 3 modes.


1. PPPoE on the CPE

2. PPPoE on the client

3. BRIDGE mode - no PPPoE


So after reading the docs, testing with other PPPoE clients and

connecting with the ppp dial I assumed it was #2 that was the right

settings (seems quite logical and the fact that it worked....) Turns

out that despite the description of item #2 being PPPoE ON CLIENT they

really do not mean it for the OpenBSD kernel driver. I, for no reason

at all, and after banging my head on the wall a few times tried mode

number 3 and guess what - the link came up.  Does not make a ton of

sense but at this point, whatever.


Thanks All!

Sean
