Hi Ben, this was a known issue on an older package version, and since
you asked, we realized that the version on intel.com hasn't been updated
in a long time, and so doesn't have the fix.
We are working to correct the internal issues that lead to this stale
package being left there and not updated, and are grateful you pointed
us to the issue!
Please keep an eye out for the intel.com download page to be updated
with the latest PPPoE package. Once you have that, RSS should start
working correctly after loading the newer package.
Thanks for your patience, I don't have a direct ETA on this, but I did
start the ball rolling internally.
-Jesse
