I have the following setup in /etc/config/network:

config interface lan
        option ifname   eth0
        option proto    static
        option ipaddr   192.168.1.1
        option netmask  255.255.255.0

config interface wan
        option ifname   ath0
        option proto    pppoe
        option username user@domain
        option password password

If I restart my router or do "/etc/init.d/network restart" and then "pidof pppd" there is two instances of pppd running?  "logread" confirms this.  Is this a known issue? 

Its a big nuisance since it seems like the 2nd pppd removes the default route that the first instance created after connecting and then I have to manually set it right everytime I restart the router.

Any ideas?
