Manual PPPoE Configuration
If your ISP uses PPPoE, select PPPoE for the Internet Service Provider.
• Enter the Account Name, Domain Name, Login, and Password as provided by your ISP. These
fields are case sensitive. The range extender tries to discover the domain automatically if you
leave the Domain Name blank. Otherwise, you may need to enter it manually.
• To change the login timeout, enter a new value in minutes. This determines how long the
range extender keeps the Internet connection active after there is no Internet activity from the
LAN. Entering a timeout value of zero means never log out.
Note: You no longer need to run the ISP’s login program on your PC in order to access the
Internet. When you start an Internet application, your range extender automatically logs you in.
