1. NETWORK CONFIGURATION

PPPoE connection does not require you to have an IP address or DNS 
settings manually encoded on your network card. PPPoE connection uses 
authentication to establish the Internet connection and its after doing this 
that your router is assigned an IP and DNS settings from TPG.

To begin, your PC needs to receive a private IP address from the router. 
Most ADSL routers have DHCP enabled by default that will take care of 
this.

To ensure your Network Card is ready for this please follow the following 
steps:

A.  Click on
