PPPOE won't establish when previously worked on a Cisco 887

 

I can't get PPPOE to establish it just sticks at initialising when going between a 40F and a Virgin Small Business Hub (UK ISP).

 

It works fine with Cisco (config below) but won't come up with my FortiGate. One thing I've seen is that the Cisco was set specifically to CHAP. So I'll try that next time but wondering if anyone has had any first experience with this issue?

 

Relevant Cisco Config (identifying info. scrubbed):

interface FastEthernet3
 description Virgin Media cable circuit ref: REFERENCE
 no ip address
!
interface Virtual-PPP1
 description Virgin Media circuit ref: REFERENCE
 bandwidth 3084
 ip address negotiated
 ip idle-group 1 in
 ip idle-group 1 out
 ip mtu 1460
 ip tcp adjust-mss 1420
 load-interval 30
 no cdp enable
 keepalive 3
 ppp chap hostname HOSTNAME@PROVIDER
 ppp chap password PASSWORD
 pseudowire 1.2.3.4 10 encapsulation l2tpv2 pw-class pwclass1
!

Relevant FortiGate Config (identifying info. scrubbed):

config system interface
 edit "wan"
  set vdom "root"
  set allowaccess ping https ssh fgfm
  set type physical
  set lldp-reception enable
  set snmp-index 1
  set mtu-override enable
  set mtu 1460
 next
 edit "ul-mpls-1"
  set vdom "root"
  set mode pppoe
  set distance 10
  set priority 50
  set allowaccess ping https ssh http fgfm
  set type tunnel
  set tcp-mss 1420
  set description "Virgin Media circuit ref: REFERENCE"
  set role wan

  set interface "wan"
 next
end

 next
end
