EdgeRouter PPPoE Public IP / Port forwording
Symptoms: Port forwarding not working, machine not reachable from outside, strange public IP.
By default, many ISPs that use PPPoE for authentication do not automatically assign a public IPv4 (to save some..),
you may have to ask your ISP to assign one to you either static or dynamic.
By default, EdgeRouter does not setup the IP (if) provided by the ISP when connecting via PPPoE.
To use the IP, execute the following procedure:
- From the dashboard
Select "Actions" on the PPPoE interface
Then "config"
- Change option for "Address"
Set "Use DHCP"
