Bug #4058

WAN interface configured as PPPoE not displaying properly in Interfaces box of Dashboard
0%
Description
When running 2.1, the dashboard displayed all the various interfaces as: interface, link status, link speed/duplex, ip address.
Now, with the 2.2 beta, it appears that the WAN (PPPoE) interface on my test box is displaying as: interface, link status, ip address. (eg. no link speed/duplex displayed).
Thank you

This might be related to commas coming back in the status information. So maybe it is fixed with:
https://github.com/pfsense/pfsense/commit/9cbdb6e3c380efc8f812b36c7c0b90f0e52862dc
which fixed bug https://redmine.pfsense.org/issues/4859
Try that new code and report if it is happy, otherwise post a screen shot of what the dashboardInterfaces widget looks like.

Well, there's no media info on pppoeX, not sure what you want to display there. Just run ifconfig and see for yourself.

Thank you both for looking into this. Apparently something changed (gasp!) since the previous release. I looked at ifconfig output as you suggested and understand your point. Thank you for the feedback, please close as necessary.

If you really want this displayed somewhere in dashboard, you can assign the underlying physical interface (and use that to access the bridged modem) - see https://doc.pfsense.org/index.php/Accessing_modem_from_inside_firewall (and skip the NAT part, just pointless.)
