Title: TG585v7 pppoe forwarding
Post by: greenlion78 on January 28, 2009, 10:19:40 PM

Hello, I have a thompson tg585v7 on BE broadband, and I'm looking to get a netscreen firewall working with it, so I can VPN in remotely, (I have a static IP) however it doesn't like the NAT but does support pppoe does anyone know if the TG585 will allow pppoe forwarding?

any suggestions gratefully recieved, I think the answer is no, but wanted to check before binning it!

Thanks

W

Does Be support PPPoE encapsulation?  If so you need to set you TG585v7 up in bridge mode and have the firewall act as the PPPoE client.
