PPPoE too Slow

[NTAdmin]

Hi,
I have connected the wl-500gx to my pppoe connection and the internet now works extremely slow. FTP connection takes > 30s and http pages don't even load.
When I use my old canyon router and then connect one of lan ports of canyon to asus wan it works as fast, as it should.
Maybe I use the wrong settings? Are MTU and MRY relevant to the speed I get?


Thanks
Dennis

Check your DNS settings.

[NTAdmin]

The DNS is set to auto-detect and the IPs look correct to me. Anything else might be causing the problem?

[Oleg]

Try using tcpdump to find out the reason.

[NTAdmin]

It says, that some packets are rejected, and explains which ones, one time it was.
So this means, that you are sure, that the pppoe handling in your firmware is 100% ok, and all this happens because of misconig, or is there some problem with pppoe that you are aware about?

[Oleg]

Personally I use PPPoE with no problems, as well as number of other users on this forum. So, guess my answer. :)

[NTAdmin]

Yes, guess I should try to change the settings to fix it, btw what is a pppoe relay? Is it necessary? And how does MRU affect pppoe?

[Oleg]

pppoe-relay is not needed for wl500g to work with pppoe. As for MRU - check this: http://wl500g.info/showthread.php?t=1920

Thanks for the info, so MRU is responsible for the speeds. Ok, I will be tweaking it then.

No, it does not.

[NTAdmin]

hmm, I don't have an idea why is it so slow then.

I had that problem too, I called my Isp (Casema/Wanadoo) and they told me WAN Connection Speed has to be "10Mbps half-duplex" or else the connection was slow.

So I changed the WAN Connection Speed and it worked (don't know why, but it worked).

So try to change WAN Connection Speed (on the WAN-settings page) and find the right option.
