Description

If the WAN interface type is set to DHCP or Static, then miniupnpd's ext_ifname setting is set to the name of the physical ethernet interface (dc0, in my case). If the WAN interface type is then set to PPPoE while miniupnpd is active, then the ext_ifname setting is not changed to pppoe0 and remains set to the old WAN interface. This causes NAT-PMP/UPnP responses to fail to return the proper external IP address to the requesting client.

As a workaround, disabling and then re-enabling miniupnpd resolves the issue.

Affected version is 2.0.2. Tested only on i386.
