Folks, need your advise...
I have a PC with XP and running PPPoE to access internet. There is no ADSL
modem or whatsoever in my home.... just an ethernet cable. In China, the set
up is certainly different from US.
I used to need to dial PPPoE from my PC (with XP). I set it up with the
network wizard.
Now I installed a Linksys WiFi router. The Router will dial the PPPoE
directly. In that sense, my PC (with XP) should be able to connect to the
Router without having to dial PPPoE, right? But every time I launch IE, it
requires me to connect thru PPPoE again. I have other problems as reported in
other posting.....
Do I still need to authenticate via the PPPoE from my PC? or don't I need to
do it (since the Router does it all)? How could I set the network wizard on
my XP PC so that I do not need to go thru that PPPoE connect icon?
My other PC running Win2000, I could just plug it in to the Router and get
to internet instantaneouosly without have to do any dialing or connecting.
How could I set up the PC with XP to do the same?
