PPPoE
If you are using DSL or a cable modem to connect to the Internet and your Internet service
provider uses PPPoE (Point to Point Protocol over Ethernet), you can go to [Settings] > [Network]
> [PPPoE] and enter your account information to allow the system to connect to the Internet
without having to go through a router. If you wish to get more information about PPPoE, please
contact your Internet service provider or network administrator.
VPN
Here you can let your ASUSTOR NAS become a VPN client, and via PPTP or Open VPN, connect to
a VPN server to access a virtual private network. ASUSTOR NAS supports the use of different
connection settings files, allowing you to connect to the VPN server of your choice. The ASUSTOR
VPN client currently supports the two most common connection protocols: PPTP and OpenVPN.
Reminder: The VPN client cannot be used simultaneously with the VPN Server. If you need
to use the VPN client, please first stop any use of the VPN server.
