How do I know I am using PPPoE?
PPPoE requires a user account to login to the provider's server. If you need to
configure a user name and password on your computer to connect to the ISP you are
probably using PPPoE. If you are simply connected to the Internet when you turn on
your computer, you probably are not. You can also check your ISP or the information
sheet given by the ISP. Please choose PPPoE as the encapsulation type in the device
if the ISP uses PPPoE.
Why does my provider use PPPoE?

PPPoE supports a broad range of existing applications and service including
authentication, accounting, secure access and configuration management.
