3.3.4 PPPoE Encapsulation

The Prestige supports PPPoE (Point-to-Point Protocol over Ethernet). You can use PPPoE encapsulation only
when you're using the Prestige with an xDSL modem as the WAN device.
PPPoE is an IETF Draft standard specifying how a host personal computer (PC) interacts with a broadband
modem (i.e. xDSL, cable, wireless, etc.) to achieve access to high-speed data networks. It preserves the
existing Microsoft Dial-Up Networking experience and requires no new learning or procedures.
