1. NETWORK CONFIGURATION
PPPoE connection does not require you to have an IP address or DNS
settings manually encoded on your network card. PPPoE connection uses
authentication to establish the Internet connection and its after doing this
that your router is assigned an IP and DNS settings from TPG.
To begin, your PC needs to receive a private IP address from the router.
Most ADSL routers have DHCP enabled by default that will take care of this.
To ensure your Network Card is ready for this please follow the following
steps:
A. Click on Start -> Settings -> Control Panel -> Network Connections
B. Find your Network Card then right click on this and select Properties
C. Double click on Internet Protocol TCP/IP

You router:
If you had other services setup on your router like port forwarding and you had restored your router to factory defaults before
configuring in PPPoE, please now reconfigure these functions to your current router settings.
Other Additional Services:
If you are reconfiguring your router from Layer 3 to Layer 2 PPPoE and you also had other services like web server, mail

PLEASE NOTE:
ADSL routers will by default be capable of automatic authentication. This means your router will use your credentials you
have provided to make the Internet connection. Each time your router is powered on, it will initialize this automated
authentication process after which your router will receive a public IP address (fixed or dynamic depending on your plan) and
DNS settings from TPG.
