Hi,

thanks for the nice OpenWRT/AsusWl500gx tutorial.
What I was missing, is a description of how to setup pppoe on WAN, which I took from http://wiki.openwrt.org/OpenWrtDocs/Configuration#head-4c0321477debe213e4e74d6712936b9082128d42

PPPoE works fine, ping/ssh to WL500gx works fine, pinging from WL500gx to outside works fine. Unfortunately pinging and connecting through WL500gx to the Internet does not work.
What are the adjustments to /etc/firewall.user that need to be done to work with ppp0? Has anyone a clue?

Thanks,
Markus

iptables -t nat -A POSTROUTING -o ppp0 -j MASQUERADE

iptables -A FORWARD -i eth1 -o ppp0 -m state --state NEW,ESTABLISHED -j ACCEPT

Sorry,

it was late when I was trying to setup pppoe. If you follow http://wiki.openwrt.org/OpenWrtDocs/Configuration#head-4c0321477debe213e4e74d6712936b9082128d42
exactly, then WAN=$(nvram get wan_ifname) is ppp0 and the firewall works happily.

Thanks, Markus
