I always suspected this was possible but having it demonstrated is excellent. I would assume this would be of most benefit on an OpenWRT box which _does_ support hardware offload!
I mean at this point just ditch the Unifi? You have a much more capable gateway in play now that needs to have equal to greater throughput than the one you are bridging for.
No, the half-bridge is less capable for various functions, but happens to have hardware PPPoE offload which makes it faster for this specific function but not for others
In my specific situation I was able to use this WAS-110 to get full speed PPPoE from my fiber provider (Bell).

I miss when this kind of content would've just been two paragraphs and a config snippet.

I guess what they did works but it makes some of valid ip addresses unavailable.
Was thinking along the same lines; why do we hardcode a /24? Is that reality in ISP last mile networks?!
