Cisco 827 ADSL Configuration Help

M. Hamzah Khan · 2007-08-29T21:54:10+00:00

Hi everyone,I've managed to get my hands on a Cisco 827 ADSL router, which I'm justplaying around with.At the moment I have not connected the router to the internet, because Ihave a cable connection, BUT on Saturday, I'll be taking my router to afriends house, and need to connect the router to an AOL ADSLconnection....(REALLY, I've tried to convince him to change ISPs).Anyway, I have found this website has instructions on how to connect a "normal" router to AOL, but Idon't have any "normal" ones at the moment, and I'd rather use the Ciscoas I'd learn how to use it that way too :).As far as I know, it should work fine, since AOL uses PPPoA.So I was wondering if anyone has a working configuration for AOL, orany hints/tips which I could use to get the Cisco router to connect to AOL?from Googling around a bit, I've found out a few commands and made aconfiguration for the router, but am currently unable to test it (since Ido not have an AOL connection). I have pasted it below, could someoneplease tell me if its OK, or I've made a mistake somewhere?Any help truly appreciated.Hamzah- --M.

I don't have AOl so I can't say anything about that, but I would get rid of the access-lists and firewall and concentrate on the basic connectivity first.

under ATM0 add: dsl enable-training-log (so that you can see the training with show dsl int atm0)

Looks OK. Never seen anyone use pvc 0/100 before. Maybe AOL do?

In the US I think is is often 0/35. The other thing is that pap is not always supported chap is more common I think. Easy to try one then the other though or even configure both, I think it tries both,

run a debug ppp

your isp may have another route that you will use for default

the debug ppp will show you the ip with whom you are negotiating
