DSL (Modulation) Settings
The DSL Setup menu is used to change the Modulation Type used for the ADSL connection. This setting should
only be changed if your service provider has given explicit instructions to change it.
Note
Do not change the (ADSL) Modulation type used unless you have been instructed to do
so. If this setting is not configured properly, the Router will not work.

Configure Connection 1 for PPPoA
PPP or Point-to-Point protocol is a standard method of establishing a network connection/session between
networked devices. Different forms of PPP include PPPoA and PPPoE (discussed below) involve an
authentication process that requires a username and password to gain access to the network. PPPoA (PPP over
ATM) as described in RFC 2364, is a method of using PPP on an ATM network. ATM is used for many types of
telecommunications services including ADSL.
