Chapter 3: Operating the system
Configuring the connected equipment for PPPoE
To use PPPoE with your TracPhone system, first enable PPPoE in your
terminal. Refer to Enabling PPPoE (Point-to-Point Protocol over Ethernet) on
page 109.
After enabling PPPoE in the terminal, you must configure your equipment.
How to do this depends on the type of equipment. Refer to the user
documentation of the equipment. As a minimum, you need to configure the
following parameters in your equipment in order to make PPPoE work with the
terminal:
• User name and password.
The user name and password can be left blank (or insert user name: void
and password: void). Then the registration on the Access Point is most
commonly done in such a way that the data connection is established with
a dynamic IP address from the airtime provider.
To request a static IP (if subscribed to) from the Access Point you must type
in the user name and password from your airtime subscription.
Note for MAC OS: User name and password are required. Use user name
void and password void. This works for some ISPs. Contact your airtime
provider for further information.
• For setups that have a check box for "Enable LCP extensions", deselect this.
No further configuration is needed to make a Standard IP data connection to
the Internet.
See the next page for information on how to configure specific services for
your PPPoE connection.
