Setting your ISP Connection Type to PPPoE or PPPoA

PPPoE (Point-to-Point Protocol over Ethernet) is the standard method of
connecting networked devices. It requires a user name and password to
access the network of your ISP for connecting to the Internet. PPPoA (PPP
over ATM) is similar to PPPoE, but is mostly implemented in the UK. Select
PPPoE or PPPoA and click “Next”. Then enter the information provided by
your ISP, and click “Apply Changes” to activate your settings.

1. User Name

- Enter the user name. (Assigned by your ISP).

2. Password

3. Retype Password

4. VPI/VCI

- Enter your Virtual Path Identifier (VPI) and Virtual Circuit

Identifier (VCI) parameter here. (Assigned by your ISP).

5. Encapsulation

- Select your encapsulation type (supplied by

your ISP) to specify how to handle multiple protocols at the ATM
