I've had pfSense working with EE broadboand for around a year, moved house switched to sky broadband now the wan is down.
I've used wireshark to get my username and password, entered these in ppoe, nothing.
I use a modem in bridge mode, this says there is an internet connection. Tried troubleshooting, I changed this to ppoa llc and used my credentials. It says there's an internet connection but there seems to be a problem with DNS.
Really have no idea what the issue is, any help greatly appreciated.

Have you tried spoofing the MAC address of your official sky modem on your WAN PPPoE port? And checked that you use the Sky DNS servers? Can you ping a IP within Sky (gateway of your router) and an outside ip (google, facebook)?
Should've said that, yes I spoofed the mac address.
I've just got the modem to work. I've been searching around it seems like sky only uses ppoa. I think https://www.ballicom.co.uk/vigor120v2-draytek-vigor-120.p739273.html?ref=PLA&gclid=CjwKEAiAp97CBRDr2Oyl-faxqRMSJABx4kh9tP9HjC_TH2dyeg2oK582zjiJYbtDMRu2DfNwdUCrPRoCxWvw_wcB will solve my issues?

Yes, worked with those. You can setup your draytek to dump modem mode and just use it for the pppoa and let the rest be handeled by the pfsense box.

Got my hands on a 120, cannot get it to play nice sigh. It's also stopped connecting to it's ip which is super helpful when trying to change settings.
I hate sky,
