NBG6604 User’s Guide

By implementing PPPoE directly on the NBG6604 (rather than individual computers), the computers on
the LAN do not need PPPoE software installed, since the NBG6604 does that part of the task.
Furthermore, with NAT, all of the LANs’ computers will have access.
This screen displays when you select PPPoE encapsulation.
