B. PPP over Ethernet (PPPoE) Connection
PPPoE is a common type of Internet access provided by many xDSL Internet
Service Providers. It requires you to enter the User Name and the Password
given by ISP for authentication and obtaining Broadband Router’s WAN IP
address. The other three optional fields might also be assigned value by user:
a. MTU field: MTU field is used to specify the maximum transmit unit of a
packet over PPPoE link. Do not enter a number to this field unless your
Internet Service Provider request a different MTU size than the default
value (1492 bytes).
b. Idle Time field: If the Idle Time is specified with non-zero number,
Broadband Router disconnects the PPPoE session after there is no data
traffic on WAN interface within the specified “Idle Time” minutes.
c. Auto-reconnect field: Once there is any outgoing data traffic, the router
automatically re-establishes the PPPoE session .
If Internet access is through a PPTP, please click the selection button of the “PPTP”
and then click the “Next” button.
