Manual software installation
This chapter describes how to manually configure the ADSL modem. An explanation is
first given of the different protocols which are used by your ADSL modem.
6.2.1
Protocols
Different protocols can be used to connect to the Internet via ADSL. These protocols are
often given different names by different service providers. For example, the PPPoA
protocol can be called RFC2364 by your ISP or ADSL line provider or be called
NDISWAN in your modem’s software. The required protocol is provided by your ISP.
See the table below for the correct name for the various protocols.

Table 1: Description of the various protocols
Since the names of the protocols used during the manual installation are NDISLAN and
NDISWAN and since these names are probably not known by the ISP, table 2 gives a
short description of which protocols they contain and their most general names.
