Thank you VERY MUCH!

I follow the instructions, but the flow control router pppoe dialing has always failed. Are there any suggestions?

Has anyone been successful in getting a transparent firewall setup on 17.1 beta using the instructions here: https://docs.opnsense.org/manual/how-tos/transparent_bridge.html? Or any other instructions?

I tried a few months ago using 16.x and was unsuccessful using em NICs.
