PPPoE and PPPoA Settings in detail
The example menu below is a section of the WAN settings for PPPoE and PPPoA connection types. Most users will
only need to enter a User Name and Password.
PPPoE/PPPoA WAN settings section (enlarged view)
To configure a PPPoE or PPPoA type WAN connection, follow these steps:
1. If not already selected, choose the PPPoE/PPPoA option from the WAN Settings pull-down menu.
PPPoE/PPPoA is selected by default if you are configuring the Router for the first time.
2. Under the ATM VC Settings at the top of the window should not be changed unless you have been instructed
to change them. However, if you are instructed to change the VPI or VCI values, type in the values assigned
for your account. Leave the PVC and Virtual Circuit setting at the default (Pcv0 and Enabled) values for now.
This can be used later if you are configuring multiple virtual circuits for your ADSL service. For more
information on ATM VC Settings, see the table on page 45 below.
3. Under the PPPoE/PPPoA heading, type the User Name and Password used for your ADSL account. A
typical User Name will be in the form user1234@isp.co.uk
. The Password may be assigned to you by your ISP
or you may have selected it when you set up the account with your ISP.
4. Choose the correct Authentication Type from the drop-down menu. Most users will want to leave the setting
on Auto. PAP and CHAP are the other two options. The Auto setting will automatically detect the correct type
of authentication.
