7.4. PPPoE (Point-to-Point Protocol over Ethernet)

Point-to-Point Protocol over Ethernet (PPPoE): To set up a PPPoE connection,
enter the Username, Password, and Service (name) of the Internet connection
provided by your ISP. A PPPoE connection is usually from a DSL Internet service.
Username: The username or e-mail address that the Internet connection
uses to access Internet connectivity.
Password: The password that corresponds to the username or e-mail
address used to connect to the Internet in the PPPoE.
Service Name: The Service Name is optional. This is to signify the name of
the Internet Service Provider.
MTU: Maximum Transmission Unit. It specifies the largest packet size
permitted for Internet transmission. The factory default MTU size of PPPoE is 1492. If you wish to manually change the MTU size, set it between
1200 and 1492.
Authentication Type: Auto, PAP, or CHAP. Select the authentication type provided by your ISP. If you are not sure, please select Auto.
Type: Connection type. You can select Keep Connection, Automatic Connection, or Manual Connection.
Idle Timeout: Maximum amount of time for inactive Internet connection. The Internet connection will be dropped when the maximum idle time
is reached.
Clone MAC: Some ISPs require you to register the MAC address of your network interface card (NIC) connected directly to your cable or DSL
modem during installation. Clone MAC will mask the router's MAC address with the MAC address of your NIC. Enter the MAC address of the NIC
in the MAC address field and click the Clone MAC button. Now, the correct MAC address is used for communication to the ISP.
Click Apply to enable your settings.
