Remove VLAN Tag and setup PPPoE Passthrough on Tomato Shibby
How to remove a VLAN tag and setup PPPoE Passthrough on a Tomato Shibby Router
This step-by-step video tutorial shows the procedure on how to remove the VLAN tag and enable passthrough on a specific port, so that you can initiate a PPPoE connection from a device that sits behind the Router.
For example, it will help to establish a PPPoE connection directly from a PlayStation 4 and get NAT Type 1 connection.
It will also enable any device that doesn't natively support VLAN and 802.1Q tagging to establish a PPPoE connection, such as an Apple AirPort Express.
The procedure works on most modern Fiber Internet Connections that use PPPoE.
Here are the Commands used in the video:
1. To check the current settings:
nvram show|grep vlan.ports
nvram show|grep vlan..ports
nvram show|grep vlan0tag
2. To setup new settings:
nvram set vlan0ports="1 2 3 5*"
nvram set vlan12ports="0t 4 5"
3. To save the changes:
nvram commit
4. (Optional Bonus) To setup first VLAN 0 Tag offset:
nvram set vlan0tag="912"
Make sure to do a backup before making any changes.
