WAN
–
PPPoE
The
WAN
interface
can
be
configured
as
PPPoE.
This
type
of
connection
is
usually
used
for
a
DSL
service
and
requires
a
username
and
password
to
connect.
Internet
Connection
Type
:
Select
PPPoE
from
the
drop
‐
down
list.
MTU
:
The
Maximum
Transmission
Unit
(MTU)
is
a
parameter
that
determines
the
largest
packet
size
(in
bytes)
that
the
router
will
send
to
the
WAN.
If
LAN
devices
send
larger
packets,
the
router
will
break
them
into
smaller
packets.
Ideally,
you
should
set
this
to
match
the
MTU
of
the
connection
to
your
ISP.
Typical
values
are
1500
bytes
for
an
Ethernet
connection.
If
the
router's
MTU
is
set
too
high,
packets
will
be
fragmented
downstream.
If
the
router's
MTU
is
set
too
low,
the
router
will
fragment
packets
unnecessarily
and
in
extreme
cases
may
be
unable
to
establish
some
connections.
In
either
case,
network
performance
can
suffer.
