PPP over Ethernet

The Netopia R910 Router supports the Point-to-Point protocol over Ethernet (PPPoE) for use of PPP to connect through a DSL or cable modem. Some ISPs require user name and password authentication to connect you with their DSL or cable service. PPPoE allows user name and password authentication to the ISP via your R910’s Ethernet interface to your DSL or cable modem.

To configure PPP authentication in your R910, you first enable PPP over Ethernet and then create a Connection Profile for your Internet connection.

From the Main Menu select WAN Configuration, WAN Setup, and then EN (Wan Module 1) Setup. Press Return.
