This is usually the name that you use in your email address. For example, if your main
mail account is [email protected], then you would type JerAB in this field. Some ISPs (like
Mindspring, Earthlink, and T-DSL) require that you use your full email address when you
log in. If your ISP requires your full email address, type it in this field.

In the Service Name name field, enter a service name.
If your ISP did not provide a service name, leave this field blank.
Note:
The default setting of the Connection Mode field is Always on to provide
a steady IPv6 connection. The modem router never terminates the connection.
If the connection is terminated, for example, when the modem is turned off, the
modem router attempts to reestablish the connection immediately after the
PPPoE connection becomes available again.

Specify how the modem router assigns IPv6 addresses to the devices on your home
network (the LAN) by selecting one of the following radio buttons:
Use DHCP Server

IPv6 systems might not support the DHCv6 client function.
Auto Config
. This is the default setting.
7.
(Optional) Select the
Use This Interface ID
check box, and specify the interface ID that you
want to be used for the IPv6 address of the modem router’s LAN interface.
If you do not specify an ID here, the modem router generates one automatically from its
MAC address.

The modem router supports both client-to-gateway and gateway-to-gateway VPN tunnels.
The modem router supports up to five concurrent tunnels.
Client-to-Gateway VPN Tunnels
Client-to-gateway VPN tunnels provide secure access from a remote computer, such as a
telecommuter connecting to an office network.
