hello peter and people,

Heres the fix to get pppoe working, (this config is for 3 nic's in a pc) . 
after the install go into the web gui and config the pppoe connection as 
normal after that it will try to connect with no luck, now reboot the 
machine, this will come with a error "fatal error module not found" (in the 
shell console of the firewall). Now go back into the web gui and dissconnect 
the pppoe connection this will stop the error message from annoying you in 
the shell console. Now in the console go to var\efw\ethernet once in that 
dir run "vi settings" now add this line "RED_DEV=eth2" (use the same case 
for text). Now reboot the machine and it should connect.

Once you run the config for pppoe in the web gui you will have to do the 
above step again.

p.s peter it's eth2, eth3 didnt work.

cheers people.
