Quickstart
To configure the gateway for a new connection, click on Setup and then click on New
Connection. The default PPPoE connection setup is displayed. Give your connection a unique
name; the name must not have spaces and cannot begin with numbers. Select the encapsulation
type (LLC or VC); if you are not sure just use the default mode. Select the VPI and VCI
settings; your DSL service provider or your ISP will supply these; in this case the DSL service
provider is using 0,100. Also select the quality of service (QOS); leave the default value if you
are unsure or the ISP did not provide this information. At the Type field select, for a BT phone
line, PPPoA/VcMUX, VPI 0, VCI 38. For a KC phone line then select PPoA/LLC with VPI 1
and VCI 50.
Following is a description of the different options:
1.
Username: The username for the connection access; this is provided by your DSL service
provider or your ISP.
2.
Password: The password for the connection access; this is provided by your DSL service
provider or your ISP.
3.
On-Demand: Enables on-demand mode. The connection will disconnect if no activity is
detected after the specified idle timeout value.
4.
Idle Timeout: Specifies that the connection should disconnect if the link has no activity
detected for n seconds. This field is used in conjunction with the On-Demand feature. To
ensure that the link is always active, enter a 0 in this field.
5.
Keep Alive: When on-demand option is not enable, this value specifies the time to wait
without being connected to your provider before terminating the connection. To ensure that
the link is always active, enter a 0 in this field.
6.
Set Route: Specify this connection as the default-route.
7.
Enforce MTU: Check this box if you experience problems accessing the Internet over a
connection. This feature will force all TCP traffic to conform with PPP MTU by changing
TCP Maximum Segment Size to PPP MTU.
