How do I know I am using PPPoE?
PPPoE requires a user account to login to the provider's server. If you need to configure a user name and
password on your computer to connect to the ISP you are probably using PPPoE. If you are simply connected to
the Internet when you turn on your computer, you probably are not. You can also check your ISP or the
information sheet given by the ISP. Please choose PPPoE as the encapsulation type in the Prestige if the ISP
uses PPPoE.
Why does my provider use PPPoE?
PPPoE emulates a familiar Dial-Up connection. It allows your ISP to provide services using their existing
network configuration over the broadband connections. Besides, PPPoE supports a broad range of existing
applications and service including authentication, accounting, secure access and configuration management.
