How can I setup my router to work with Earthlink DSL or any PPPoE connection?
(continued)
Can I use my D-Link Broadband Router to share my Internet connection
provided by AOL DSL Plus?
In most cases yes. AOL DSL+ may use PPPoE for authentication bypassing the client software.
If this is the case, then our routers will work with this service. Please contact AOL if you are not
sure.
To set up your router:
Step 1
Log into the web-based configuration (192.168.0.1) and configure the WAN side to use
PPPoE.
Step 2
Enter your screen name followed by @aol.com for the user name. Enter your AOL
password in the password box.
Step 3
You will have to set the MTU to 1400. AOL DSL does not allow for anything higher than
1400.
Step 4
Apply settings.
Step 5
Recycle the power to the modem for 1 minute and then recycle power to the router. Allow 1
to 2 minutes to connect.
If you connect to the Internet with a different internet service provider and want to use the AOL
software, you can do that without configuring the router’s firewall settings. You need to configure
the AOL software to connect using TCP/IP.
Go to
for more specific configuration information of their software.
