BUG PPPOE Disconnects after Time - Routing Problems

my PPPOE Uplink disconnects after a time without a cause.
restarting makes the PPPOE Running again but its unstable after a time

the problems continues and makes the routing instable/not functional.

I have noticed that as well

Have you tried the periodic PPPoE reset option(s)? That's there to address this problem without manual intervention...

[L1ghtn1ng]

Which option is that?

[fichtner]

Either under Point To Point Advanced Edit or under Interface config... It's pretty hidden and complex, but it should help to periodically reset the interface.

There is a Cron rework going on at the moment, it will remove the feature in favour of a simple and flexible approach where you can pick the actual Cron settings.

Will wait to 16.1.16 if that will be in this week's release?

still the same problems with 24h reconnect
the routing is going down.. no default route to pppoe. normal uplink is stable.. just in case the pppoe is the default route the system is not routing right and loosing the connection
