5.2 Establishing an ADSL connection via PPPoE

Having physically connected your NB8WVPN, the next step is to establish your ADSL connection to the Internet,

via your ISP.

Nearly all Australian ISPs connect their clients via a standard method called PPPoE (Point-to-Point Protocol over

Ethernet). Your NB8WVPN has a 'Quick Setup' page configured for easy access via PPPoE, so all you need do is

enter the Username and Password issued by your ISP, click the 'Save & Connect' button and connection will follow.

This sequence will be explained here.

Note:

If you are not using a PPPoE connection type, then consult the section under Advanced>WAN for details of choosing another

connection type (e.g. PPPoA, Static, Bridge, etc.). If unsure, follow the steps in this section first.

At this point you must have your NB8WVPN connected according to Section 1, above, with your PC connected to

the NB8WVPN via Ethernet cable. You must also have your ISP-supplied username and password on hand.

For Windows users, insert the accompanying CD into your CD-ROM drive. An autorun screen should

appear. Click the 'Configure NB8WVPN'button;

Note:

If you do not have a CD-ROM or are running a non-Windows OS, you can access the NB8WVPN Configuration page by opening

a web browser and entering http://192.168.1.1 into the Address / Location field.If you are not able to access the login screen by

this means, go to the section titled 'Computer Hardware Configuration'for instructions and come back here when this is completed.

Otherwise, proceed to next.

Enter the username 'admin' and password 'admin' and click 'OK';
