PPPoE/PPPoA
To configure a PPPoE or PPPoA type WAN connection, follow these
steps:
1. Type the Username and Password used for your ADSL account. A
typical User Name will be in the form “[email protected].” The
Password may be assigned to you by your ISP or you may have
selected it when you set up the account with your ISP. The Service
Name field is used for the name of your Internet Service Provider.
This is optional.
2. Choose the Connection Type from the drop-down menu. This
defines both the connection protocol and encapsulation method
used for your ADSL service. The available options are
PPPoE LLC
,
PPPoE VC-Mux, PPPoA LLC
and
PPPoA VC-Mux.
If you have not
been provided specific information for the Connection Type setting,
leave the default setting.
3. Leave the MTU value at the default setting unless you have
specific reasons to change this.
4. Some users will want to set an Idle Time Out. This is an age-out
value, in minutes, before the Router times out.
5. If you are instructed to change the VPI or VCI values, type in the
values assigned for your account.
6. When you are satisfied that all the WAN settings are configured
correctly, click the
Apply Settings
button. This will save the
settings and reboot the Router to let your changes take effect.
7. Upon restarting, the Router should automatically establish the
WAN connection. If it does not, click the
Connect
button at the
bottom of this window.
