PPPoE (DSL)
Choose PPPoE (Point to Point Protocol over Ethernet) if your ISP uses a PPPoE connection. Your ISP will provide you with a username and password.
This option is typically used for DSL services. Make sure to remove your PPPoE software from your computer. The software is no longer needed and
will not work through a router.
