PPPoE (PPP over Ethernet) is a specification for connecting multiple computer users on an Ethernet

local area network to a remote site through common customer premises equipment, which is the

telephone company's term for a modem and similar devices. PPPoE can be used to have an office or

building-full of users share ADSL, cable modem, or wireless connection to the Internet. Usually, it is

used in broadband Internet access such as ADSL.

To make the LS100 work in PPPoE mode, users should have a PPPoE account and the equipments

for PPPoE access such as an ADSL modem. Since the LS100 provides the PPPoE protocol, it can

access the remote host on the Internet over ADSL connection. It is required to set up the user name

and password of the PPPoE account.

If the IP mode is set to PPPoE, The LS100 negotiates the PPPoE connection with PPPoE server

whenever it boots up. During the negotiation, it receives the information required for Internet

connection such as IP address, gateway, subnet mask and DNS servers. If the connection is

established, the LS100 tries to maintain the connection as long as possible. If the disconnection is

detected, the LS100 will attempt to make a new PPPoE connection by requesting the new connection.
