PPPoE Wizard-Detected Option

If the Setup Wizard discovers that your ISP uses PPPoE, you will see this menu:

• Enter the Account Name, Domain Name, Login, and password as provided by your ISP. These
fields are case sensitive. The firewall will try to discover the domain automatically if you leave
the Domain Name blank. Otherwise, you may need to enter it manually.
• To change the login timeout, enter a new value in minutes. This determines how long the
firewall keeps the Internet connection active after there is no Internet activity from the LAN.
Entering a timeout value of zero means never log out.
Note: You no longer need to run the ISP's login program on your PC in order to access the
Internet. When you start an Internet application, your firewall will automatically log you in.
• If you know that your ISP does not automatically transmit DNS addresses to the firewall
during login, select "Use these DNS servers" and enter the IP address of your ISP's Primary
DNS Server. If a Secondary DNS Server address is available, enter it also.
Note: If you enter DNS addresses, restart your computers so that these settings take effect.
• Click Apply to save your settings.
• Click Test to verify that your Internet connection works. If the NETGEAR website does not
