It provides no essential >functionality that netctl+ppp don't. I'm using an arch box as a firewall router. I have verizon fios connection that still uses pppoe. Recently the pppoe connection upload bandwidth went down to < 50kbps (normal is 25Mbps) but ok download bandwidth is still around 58Mbps. During boot pppd 2.4.6 is started and the message RP-PPPoE plugin version 3.8d compiled against pppd 2.4.6. Something is now broken and I don't know what it is. I switched over to using the fios router = works OK, switched over to a archlinuxarm on utilite - works OK, mostly. I built a new firewall router on another box with new network cards, and it has the same problem. Which leads me to conclude that something is wrong in the pppoe. The setup I use is close to the arch wiki on pppd, which use the rp-pppoe.so plugin. Can you explain how netctl+ppp can replace the rp-pppoe plugin. Thanks Wayne S
