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 .

disconnect after X���
The “Disconnect” feature is used to automatically disconnect the Router
from your ISP when there is no activity for a specified period of time . For
instance, placing a check mark next to this option and entering “5” into
the minute field will cause the Router to disconnect from the Internet
after five minutes of no Internet activity . This option should be used if
you pay for your Internet service by the minute .
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 .
3) You have to double-click on a desktop icon other than your
browser to get on the Internet .
