5. Configure the DI-704 with PPPoE
What is PPPoE?
PPPoE stand for Point-to-Point Protocol over Ethernet. It is a non-standard method
of connecting to your ISP to gain an IP address. It relies upon a software client that is
provided by the ISP. An IP address is required to gain a connection to the Internet.
How can I tell if I am using PPPoE?
PPPoE requires a client on your computer. If you have a broadband connection and
have to login to your provider in a similar fashion to how you would dial in with a
modem, you are probably using PPPoE. If you are simply connected to the Internet
when you turn on your computer, you probably are not. The safest way to check is to
call your provider, or read the documentation provided with your Internet service to
determine if you currently use PPPoE.
A. Click the IP Address tab. Select Obtain an IP address automatically.
