CONNECTION TYPE
PPPoE is a connection protocol (mainly for xDSL connections). Using that protocol a PC can connect
to a network and receive an IP. PPPoE is a way to encapsulate network traffic, based on credentialed
access (i.e. username and password provided from an ISP).
Static IP means that regardless of the connection method/request the same Network Interface Card
(PC) will be issued one, pre-defined IP that will never change.
DHCP is a way for a network to allocate unique IP addresses to the devices (i.e. computers and
smartphones, etc.) within it so that traffic can be delivered back-n-forth without confusion.
