2 Creating and Using a PPPoE Session Client
This chapter describes how to make a connection to your SP, using
the PointtoPoint Protocol over Ethernet (PPPoE), with your .
To use your with PPPoE, you will need a PPPoE session
client application, readily installed on your PC. This application
will build connection icons for easy connectivity to your SP.
If your SP requires you to use PPPoE, it should provide you with the
PPPoE session client application. If they did not do so, contact your
SP for more information.
Using the PPPoE session client application, you will be able to
build PPPoE session icons, representing all the connection
parameters, just like creating DialUp icons with Microsoft's
DialUp Networking application.
All you need is your username and password for your account;
although sometimes also a service name is required. Check with
your SP which service name to choose, if any.
For further details on how to fill in these parameters, and use
additional functionality, consult the manual of your PPPoE session
client application, or follow the instructions of your SP.
