Establishing An Adsl Connection Via Pppoe - NetComm NB9WMAXX Quick Start Manual

5.2 Establishing an ADSL connection via PPPoE

Having physically connected your NB9WMAXX, 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 NB9WMAXX has a 'Quick Setup' page configured for easy access via PPPoE, so all you
need to do is enter the Username and Password issued by your ISP, click the 'Save & Reboot' button and
connection will follow. This sequence will be explained here.
Note: If you are not using a PPPoE connection type, please consult the User Guide (on CD) for details on changing your connection
type. If unsure, follow the steps in this section first.
At this point you must have your NB9WMAXX connected according to Section 5.1, with your PC connected
to the NB9WMAXX via Ethernet cable (or wireless link for NB9W only). You must also have your ISP-supplied
username and password on hand.
1. For Windows users, insert the accompanying CD into your CD-ROM drive. An autorun screen should
appear. Click the 'Configure NB9WMAXX' button;
Note: If you do not have a CD-ROM or are running a non-Windows OS, you can access the NB9WMAXX Configuration page by opening
a web browser and entering http://19.18.1.1 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' in the User Guide (on CD) for instructions and come back here when
this is completed. Otherwise, proceed to next.
2. Enter the username 'admin' and password 'admin' and click 'OK';
