the existing Microsoft Dial-Up Networking software can activate, and therefore requires no new learning or
procedures for Windows users.
One of the benefits of PPPoE is the ability to let end users access one of multiple network services, a
function known as dynamic service selection. This enables the service provider to easily create and offer
new IP services for specific users.
Operationally, PPPoE saves significant effort for both the end user and ISP/carrier, as it requires no specific
configuration of the broadband modem at the customer site.
By implementing PPPoE directly on the Prestige (rather than individual computers), the computers on the
LAN do not need PPPoE software installed, since the Prestige does that part of the task. Furthermore, with
NAT, all of the LAN's computers will have access.
