A few days ago, my Vodafone EasyBox 904 xDSL failed forever. To reduce the amount of devices, I decided to order an Alltech ALL4781-VDSL2-SFP .
It arrived today and I could not connect until I found out that I need to switch to SFP manually with the following command:
Setting up the network interface, I stuck: Vodafone is not answering my requests or does not get them.
Here the messages log:

Here is my network configuration:
config interface 'wan'
option proto 'pppoe'
option password '<password>'
option ipv6 'auto'
option username 'vb********69'
option ifname 'eth2.132'
config interface 'wan6'
option proto 'pppoe'
option ipv6 'auto'
option ifname '@wan'
Turris Version is 5.4.4
Does anyone see my mistake?
Starlight:
option ifname 'eth2.132'
Try βeth2.7β instead of βeth2.132β, as this is likely a TAL/access link operated by Deutsche Telekom.

Thanks @moeller0 , VLAN ID 7 is correct, Vodafone Support confirmed.
However, neither them nor me can figure out why there is no connection established.
Still PAP authentication failed and no connection possible. Username and password are double checked and the technician said, he could not see any failed logins.
Edit
I added a log for PPP. here I also see
Edit
Fixed it myself, Vodafone Technical Support was not aware of the prefix for connecting. Here the current correct network configuration for Vodafone VDSL for reference:
config interface 'wan'
option proto 'pppoe'
option ipv6 'auto'
option username 'vodafone-vdsl.komplett/<username>'
option password '<password>'
option ifname 'eth2.7'

Could you please add this to the wiki site at https://openwrt.org/docs/guide-user/network/wan/isp-configurations
That seems like a decent place to add this documentation.
