addition to the name of the remote station, the current IP address as well as
the addresses of DNS and NBNS servers can be found there. Options such as
channel bundling or the duration of the connection are also displayed.

In this column of
the PPP list...

...enter the following values:

Remote site
(device name)

Name the remote site uses to identify itself to your router.

User name

The name with which your router logs onto the remote site. The
device name of your router is used if nothing is specified here.

Password

Password transferred by your router to the remote site
(if demanded).
An asterisk (*) in the list indicates that an entry is present.

Auth.

Security method used on the PPP connection ('PAP', 'CHAP' or
'none'). Your own router demands that the remote site observes
this procedure. Not the other way round.
This means that 'PAP', 'CHAP' security is not useful when connect-
ing to Internet service providers, who may not wish to provide a
password. Select 'none' as the security attribute for connections
such as these.
