Actiontec USB/Ethernet DSL Modem User Manual
Obtain an IP Address through PPPoE or PPPoA
Select one of these options to allow the Modem to use the
“Broadband Connection via PPPoA” screen:
If a User Name, Password and/or Static IP was entered in the Installation Buddy, it should be displayed in the “Broadband Connection via PPPoE/PPPoA” screen. If not, enter the information now. If the information is unavailable, contact the ISP.
PPP Auto Connect
If PPP auto connect is activated (by clicking in the appropriate check box), the Modem will attempt to automatically redial the PPP connection if it is dropped or disconnected during an online session. Actiontec recommends activating PPP Auto Connect.
