Setting your ISP Connection Type to PPPoE
Most DSL providers use PPPoE as the connection type. If you use a DSL
modem to connect to the Internet, your ISP may use PPPoE to log you into
the service. If you have an Internet connection in your home or small office
that doesn’t require a modem, you may also use PPPoE.

Your connection type is PPPoE if:

1) Your ISP gave you a user name and password, which is required to
connect to the Internet;
2) Your ISP gave you software such as WinPOET or Enternet300 that you use
to connect to the Internet; or
3) You have to double-click on a desktop icon other than your browser to
get on the Internet.
