Ah, thanks: I had tried to bring it up using nmcli, but missed this error: Jul 04 10:53:23 umbrella NetworkManager[1183]: <warn> [1593885203.4348] device (wan0): PPPoE failed to start: the PPP plugin /usr/lib64/NetworkManager/1.20.12-1.fc31/libnm-ppp-plugin.so is not installed I installed it: dnf install NetworkManager-ppp And was able to get PPPoE working. I don't think rp-pppoe is needed, but have left it installed for now. PITA as I'm trying to get rid of my combined modem router (actiontech C3000A) with new Centurylink internet service, and I can't modify the modem settings once I put it in bridge mode - it has to be physically reset if I want to change anything, like put it back to PPPoE mode, or to disable the VLAN. -- Patrick _______________________________________________ users mailing list -- users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe send an email to users-leave@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Fedora Code of Conduct: https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/project/code-of-conduct/ List Guidelines: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines List Archives: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
