PPPoE Connections If you are unable to connect to your ISP using PPPoE (Point to Point Protocol over Ethernet), make sure you entered the correct information in Network preferences. To enter PPPoE settings: 1 Choose Apple () > System Preferences. 2 Click Network. 3 Click Add (+) at the bottom of the network connection services list, and choose PPPoE from the Interface pop-up menu. 4 Choose an interface for the PPPoE service from the Ethernet pop-up menu. Choose Ethernet if you are connecting to a wired network, or Wi-Fi if you are connecting to a wireless network. 5 Click Create. 6 Enter the information you received from your service provider, such as the account name, password, and PPPoE service name (if your service provider requires it). 7 Click Apply to make the settings active. Network Connections Make sure the Ethernet cable is plugged into your iMac and into the network. Check the cables and power supplies to your Ethernet hubs and routers. If you have two or more computers sharing an Internet connection, be sure that your network is set up properly. You need to know whether your ISP provides only one IP address or multiple IP addresses, one for each computer. 60 Chapter 4 Problem, Meet Solution
