Airlink X EV-DO PPPoE Point to Point Protocol over Ethernet, Configuring your Raven X for PPPoE

APPENDIX E

PPPoE: Point to Point Protocol over Ethernet

PPPoE (Point-to-Point Protocol over Ethernet) allows a point-to-point connection while using Ethernet. Just like the dial up protocol on which it is based, PPPoE uses traditional username and password authentication to establish a direct connection between two Ethernet devices on a net- work (such as your Raven X and your computer or router).

Application examples for PPPoE with your Raven X:

•Backup connectivity solution for your network

•Password restricted Internet connection

•Individualized Internet connection on a LAN

PPPoE (PPP over Ethernet) Configuration

You only need to configure a PPPoE connection on your computer if you will be connecting from the computer to the Raven X on a LAN sharing the same subnet. You may need to use Private Mode in the modem to configure its IP address to be available on the LAN.

Note: If you are using the Raven X connected to a router as a back up Internet con- nection for your network, you should configure the router to use the PPPoE con- nection and not the individual computers. Only one computer, router, or other network device at a time can connect to the Raven X using PPPoE.

	To configure a PPPoE connection on Microsoft Windows XP, 2000 or NT, you will need adminis-
	trator privileges to the computer you are configuring or access granted by an administrator on the
	network to add/remove devices to your computer.
	Configuring your Raven X for PPPoE
1.	Connect your Raven X directly to your computer or to a hub to which your computer is also con-
	nected .
2.	Start Wireless Ace: Start > All Programs > AirLink Communications > Wireless Ace 3G >
