PPPoE

Some DSL-based ISPs use PPPoE ( Po i n t - t o - Po i n t

Protocol over Ethernet) to estab- lish communica- tions with an end- user. If you are using a DSL line, check with your ISP to see if they use PPPoE. If they do use PPPoE, select this from the drop- down menu (as shown in Figure 5- 5).

Figure 5-5

If you do enable PPPoE, remember to remove any existing PPPoE applica- tions already on any of your PCs.

•User Name and Password Enter the User Name and Password you use when logging onto your ISP connection.

•Connect on Demand and Max Idle Time You can configure the Router to disconnect your ISP connection after a specified period of time (Max Idle Time). If you have been disconnected due to inactivity, Connect on Demand enables the Router to automatically re-establish your connection as soon as you attempt to access the Internet again. If you wish to activate Connect on Demand, click the radio button. If you want your Internet con- nection to remain on at all times, enter 0 in the Max Idle Time field. Otherwise, enter the number of minutes you want to have elapsed before your Internet access disconnects.

•Keep Alive Option and Redial Period This option keeps you connected to your ISP indefinitely, even when your connection sits idle. To use this option, click the radio button next to Keep Alive. The default Redial Period is 30 seconds.
