Modem Setup

The Modem Setup menu is used to change the Modulation Type used for the ADSL connection. This setting should only be changed if your service provider has given explicit instructions to change it.

	Do not change the (ADSL) Modulation type used unless you have been instructed to do
	so. If this setting is not configured properly, the Router will not work.

Configure Connection 1 for PPPoA

PPPor Point-to-Point protocol is a standard method of establishing a network connection/session between networked devices. Different forms of PPP include PPPoA and PPPoE (discussed below) involve an authentication process that requires a username and password to gain access to the network. PPPoA (PPP over ATM) as described in RFC 2364, is a method of using PPP on an ATM network. ATM is used for many types of telecommunications services including ADSL.

To configure the WAN connection for PPPoA, perform the steps listed below. Some of the settings do not need to be changed the first time the device is set up, but can be changed later if you choose.
