PPPoE
Some DSL-based service providers use PPPoE (Point-to-Point Protocol over
Ethernet) to establish Internet connections. If you are connected to the Internet
through a DSL line, check with your service provider to see if they use PPPoE. If
they do, you will have to enable PPPoE.
This option applies to some DSL services.

Enter the information that was provided by your service provider, and select the
Connect On Demand or Keep Alive feature, if desired.
• User Name and Password: The login information for your account.
• Service Name (Optional): The service name (if provided).
• Connect on Demand: Max Idle Time: A feature that allows your WRP400 to
re-establish a terminated connection when a user attempts to access the
Internet. To enable this feature, select Connect on Demand. Use the Max
Idle Time field to specify the period of inactivity that causes a connection to
terminate. Keep the default Max Idle Time of 5 minutes, or specify the
maximum period of inactivity that you want to allow.
• Keep Alive: Redial Period: A feature that allows your WRP400 to check
your Internet connection at a specified interval (Redial Period). If you are
disconnected, then the WRP400 automatically re-establishes your
connection. To enable this option, select Keep Alive. Keep the default Redial
Period of 30 seconds, or specify the interval at which you want the WRP400
to check the Internet connection.
