1. NETWORK CONFIGURATION

PPPoE connection does not require you to have an IP address or DNS

settings manually encoded on your network card. PPPoE connection uses

authentication to establish the Internet connection and its after doing this

that your router is assigned an IP and DNS settings from TPG.

To begin, your PC needs to receive a private IP address from the router.

Most ADSL routers have DHCP enabled by default that will take care of

this.

To ensure your Network Card is ready for this please follow the following

steps:

A. Click on Start -> Settings -> Control Panel -> Network Connections

B. Find your Network Card then right click on this and select Properties

C. Double click on Internet Protocol TCP/IP
