PPPoE
PPPoE stands for Point-to-Point Protocol over Ethernet. It relies on two widely accepted standards:
PPP and Ethernet. It connects users through an Ethernet to the Internet with a common broadband
medium, such as a single DSL line, wireless device or cable modem. All the users over the
Ethernet can share a common connection.
PPPoE is used for most of DSL modem users. All local users can share one PPPoE connection for
accessing the Internet. Your service provider will provide you information about user name,
password, and authentication mode.
