PPPoE software problem or... Daniel Tan 11-11-04

Recently when my ADSL connection always not consistent, can be
disconnected after some time. I'm using PPPoE software to connect. The
DSL LED on the modem will start to blink then after that it will try
to reconnect. Sometimes even so many times it tries. Anything wrong
with the pppoe software or the isp ?

Regards
Daniel

Chances are it is not you, it is your ISP Central Office. this is indicative by
the
flashing LED on the xDSL modem.

BTW: If you obtain a Cable/DSL Router such as the Linksys BEFSR41 it, not the
PC, will make
the PPPoE connection and you can remove *all* ISP software from your PC. In
addition the
Router will act as a Simplistic FireWall and there are models that implement a
full FireWall
to protect you from Internet worms and hackers. There are many other benefits
to such a
device as well.
