Chapter 2 Connection Wizard One of the benefits of PPPoE is the ability to let end users access one of multiple network services, a function known as dynamic service selection. This enables the service provider to easily create and offer new IP services for specific users. Operationally, PPPoE saves significant effort for both the subscriber and the ISP/carrier, as it requires no specific configuration of the broadband modem at the subscriber's site. By implementing PPPoE directly on the NBG6716 (rather than individual computers), the computers on the LAN do not need PPPoE software installed, since the NBG6716 does that part of the task. Furthermore, with NAT, all of the LAN's computers will have Internet access. Figure 10 Internet Connection Type: PPPoE The following table describes the labels in this screen.

NBG6716 User’s Guide

One of the benefits of PPPoE is the ability to let end users access one of multiple network services,
a function known as dynamic service selection. This enables the service provider to easily create
and offer new IP services for specific users.
Operationally, PPPoE saves significant effort for both the subscriber and the ISP/carrier, as it
requires no specific configuration of the broadband modem at the subscriber's site.
By implementing PPPoE directly on the NBG6716 (rather than individual computers), the computers
on the LAN do not need PPPoE software installed, since the NBG6716 does that part of the task.
Furthermore, with NAT, all of the LAN's computers will have Internet access.
