Internet Connectivity Dial-In Clients

Embedded PPP dial-in clients

Broadband host PPPoE dial-in clients

The SpeedTouch™’s embedded PPP dial-in client allows you to establish an Internet connection for computers residing on your local network, using only one computer of the network to control the client.

If this computer runs:

Any Operating System

you can always use the SpeedTouch™ web pages.

See “3.1 SpeedTouch™ Web Pages” on page 21 to proceed.

MS Windows XP

you can use MS Windows XP’s Internet Gateway Device Control Client. See “3.2 IGD Control Agent” on page 23 to proceed.

You can also connect to the Internet using a Broadband PPPoE dial-in application. The PPP over Ethernet connection scenario provides PPP-like dial-in behaviour over the virtual Ethernet segment.

To be able to use a broadband dial-in application on your computer for connecting to the Internet, the SpeedTouch™ needs to be configured for Bridged Ethernet or Routed PPPoE (with PPPoE relay) via the SpeedTouch™ Home Install Wizard on the Setup CD or the embedded Easy Setup.

If this computer runs: MS Windows XP

you can use the MS Windows XP broadband dial-in client. See “3.3 MS Windows XP BroadBand Connection” on page 25 for more information.

Mac OS X

you can use a Mac OS X broadband dial-in client. See “3.4 Mac OS X PPPoE Dial-in Client” on page 29 for more information.

A broadband PPPoE dial-in client provided by your Service Provider to connect to the Internet

Upon availability of OS-specific PPPoE dial-in client applications, the

latter method is Operating System independent.

For PPPoE session connectivity from a Mac OS 8.6/9.x, an MS Windows 95/98(SE)/ME/2000 or a Linux system, a host PPPoE dial-in application is mandatory.
