[SOLVED] pppoe over wifi

I stumbled on pppoe over wifi connection.  How to associate wifi without ip before initiating pppoe?  It works on windows but I couldn't figure out how this can be done under linux.  Thanks for your help.

Re: [SOLVED] pppoe over wifi

have you tried using any private ip (10.x.x.x/172.x.x.x/192.168.x.x)?

wifi has to be associated without ip before pppoe then ip will be leased.
