I have tried everything, so basically, I need anyone who can help, to baby me
along in this, because I am so lost.
D-Link router:
Dynamic PPPoE
User: (username)@aol.com
Pass:******
MTU: 1400
No dice, I can't connect. The modem is going out through Ethernet to the
router, and my computer is going out into Port 1 on the router (as the manual
said).
Take it from there. My firmware is updated and all that.
Question...if I am using AOL to connect to the internet, why am I putting my
username and pass into my router? Shouldn't it just accept the dial from my
computer and send it to my modem? Is there a way I can do this so I don't
have to put my name/pass into the router?
And what is AOL Port Magic and should I try it?
I am so lost, please can anyone help? It all works fine if I go directly
from my computer to the modem, but with the router in the way it wont do
anything.
