ZyAIR Wireless Gateway Series User’s Guide

Operationally, PPPoE saves significant effort for both the subscriber and the ISP/carrier, as it requires no specific configuration of the broadband modem at the subscriber’s site.

By implementing PPPoE directly on the ZyAIR (rather than individual computers), the computers on the LAN do not need PPPoE software installed, since the ZyAIR does that part of the task. Furthermore, with NAT, all of the LAN's computers will have Internet access.

Refer to the appendix for more information on PPPoE.
