Where abouts in the interface can I set that?

I have literally set everything to allow all traffic, no good mate.
Any other ideas?

Ok, so this issue seems to be directly tied into the fact that I need to enable a 'VLAN' tag for my internet to work over PPPoE.
Automatically it selects all Wired and Wireless ports.
