PPPoE Configuration
Some DSL-based ISPs use Point-to-Point Protocol over Ethernet (PPPoE). If you use a
DSL modem and need a user name and password to connect to the Internet, check
with your ISP to determine if you should connect using PPPoE.
To set up a PPPoE connection:
Have your user name, password, and if required, the domain name server (DNS)
address from your ISP available as you configure your network (see page 80).
