ADSL-mode – PPPoE Router
7 ADSL-mode – PPPoE Router
7.1Description
This ADSL-mode, much like the “RFC1483 MER Router” mode, allows the user to connect an almost unlimited number of PCs on the LAN/WLAN with only one IP address from the ISP. All traffic from the LAN/WLAN uses the same PVC.
NOTE! This ADSL-mode is applicable if your ISP uses PPPoE as connection type.
The HN294d has a built-in PPPoE client that will be assigned a public IP address from the BRAS at the ISP. The ISP uses PPPoE (or dial-up) connection to identify users and allow them Internet access. This type of connection requires a Username and a Password.
The HN294d automatically activates the NAT (Network Address Translation) service and its internal DHCP server. The built-in PPPoE client will provide the built-in DHCP server with information so that no configuration is needed of the built-in DHCP server (DNS information etc is filled in automatically). PCs on the LAN/WLAN will be assigned private IP addresses from the built-in DHCP server and the NAT service will route the traffic to/from the WAN.
