If the Setup Wizard determines that your Internet service account uses a login protocol such as
PPP over Ethernet (PPPoE), you will be directed to a menu like the PPPoE menu in
Figure 3-7
:
Figure 3-7: Setup Wizard menu for PPPoE login accounts
1.
Enter your Account Name (may also be called Host Name) and Domain Name. These
parameters may be necessary to access your ISP’s services such as mail or news servers. If you
leave the Domain Name field blank, the firewall will attempt to learn the domain
automatically from the ISP. If this is not successful, you may need to enter it manually.
2.
Enter the PPPoE login user name and password provided by your ISP. These fields are case
sensitive. If you wish to change the login timeout, enter a new value in minutes. Entering zero
will keep the router connected to the Internet indefinitely.
Note:
You will no longer need to launch the ISP’s login program on your PC in order to access
the Internet. When you start an Internet application, your firewall will automatically log you
in.
3.
Domain Name Server (DNS) Address: If you know that your ISP does not automatically
transmit DNS addresses to the firewall during login, select “Use these DNS servers” and enter
the IP address of your ISP’s Primary DNS Server. If a Secondary DNS Server address is
available, enter it also.
