My favorite protocol that sounds like it has a stutter is on the menu for today’s post. We’ll be discussing my migration from using the Bell Home Hub 4000 (HH4K) in Advanced DMZ mode to expose my OPNSense VM to the internet, to using PPPoE passthrough instead.

TL;DR

1. Get your PPPoE credentials.

2. Plug your router into one of the HH4K ports.

3. Create a PPPoE device interface and enter your credentials.
