Anyone using Mikrotik CHR with PPPOE users
Hello,
I have started my broadband service and currently I have around 500 customers, but I want to make a system which can handle PPPOE loads of 1000 and around 2Gbps load.
So I am thiking to make a proxmox VM and use mikrotik CHR with i3 12th gen and ddr5 16GB RAM
Anyone using for this purpose??

Yeah I use chr to handle ppoe
I fucking hate PPOE and surprised that's still a thing in 2025. Isn't it kind of fucking stupid for 24/7 broadband? So many workarounds to make that shit usable.
How much I can handle with i3 12 th gen 4 core in proxmox vm any guess?
I don't think it is that bad, I am using it since a long time and it works very well.
They solve the MTU issue or is that still forever lower MTU than 1500 than the rest of the routable internet?
Any disconnects or hung sessions?
