PPPoE Connections
Although the connection methods differ significantly, from the viewpoint of the ADSL subscriber, there is little
difference between the two variations of PPP connections. The information entered for PPPoE connections is the
same as that used for PPPoA connections.
Once you have changed the connection method to PPPoE, saved the configuration change and restarted the
device, you can proceed to enter authentication information used to connect to the WAN. Follow these steps:
1. Under PPPoE Login, enter the Login User Name used for your network account. The user name and
login password, are used to authenticate the identity of the ADSL client and provide access to the
service provider's network. The user name and login password can be any combination of up to 64
characters.
2. Enter the Login Password.
3. Unless you are instructed to use a different Authentication method, leave the default chap protocol
selected. The alternative method, pap, can be selected from the pull-down menu if required by the
service provider.
Leave the Connect on Demand option as enabled in the pull-down menu. This will allow the Router to
establish a WAN connection upon restarting.
Leave Idle Time set to the default value 0.
