Which kernel config file to use for RT-AC86U

[jyavenard]

Hi.

Attempting to compile pppoe-server and make it work.
(fwiw, I'm the one who added pptp server support to tomato almost a decade ago, and now I need pppoe support)

There are two blockers for me:
1- the user-space pppoe isn't being compiled
2- kernel-mode pppoe isn't built either.

Obviously, I would prefer the second option as it's more performant.

Now, rather than spending a couple of hours to figure out how the makefile work and which kernel config is used, does anyone know which kernel config is being used for the RT-86U.

It's an interesting router that one... First for being the first 64 bits router I've seen, and two because each ethernet ports appear on its own unlike all the other broadcom modem where it's all one big vlan.

I've already figured out on how to isolate each ethernet port to be on its own... hopefully this router will finally let me do what I need..

thanks.. I had figured it out in the end... actually hasn't changed much from my 10 y.o notes...

turned out pppoe kernel was properly built, just the pppd modules installed in the wrong spot.
