7.3 Configuring Your Internet Connection Manually
Your modem allows you to set up connection profiles for PPP authentication with your ISP. A connection profile
contains your account ID and password (provided by your ISP), and several connection options that you can specify
for your profile. The account ID and password are used for each connection profile that you set up. Connection
profiles can be associated with specific service settings, such as firewall settings or NAT services, enabling you to
customize your modem for specific users.
IMPORTANT: Before setting up a connection profile, confirm that you have an Account ID and Account Password
from your ISP.
To connect to the Internet manually by setting up a PPPoE connection profile, please follow these steps:
1. Go to the Home page, and click the Add/Edit Connection
link in the Broadband Connection to go to the
Connection Overview screen. The Connection Overview screen displays the status of your Internet
connection. In the screen below, the status displays DOWN. This means that you do not have an Internet
connection.
2. Click profile editor to set up your connection profile. The Edit screen (Home > Connection Overview) will
appear.
