Hi,
I hear that iinet is switching its Home ADSL accounts to PPPoE in
several weeks. Has anyone here used this combination or similar -
ADSL/PPPoE/Alcatel STH ethernet modem/Airport Base Station/OS X?
I read about a whole lot of problems with Airport and PPPoE on the
newsgroups, but most of them predate the current new-and-improved
Airport software.
I'm confused as to what you're asking here.
To connect to ADSL with the vast majority of ISP's you are required to use
a PPPoE client, which is generally supplied. The Airport Base Station can
run a PPPoE client, and so can all common operating systems such as OS X,
OS 9, Win and Linux. Over a standard modem line you also use a client, in
this case a serial PPP client.
So you could be asking, does anyone prefer one PPPoE client over another?
Or you could be asking, does anyone have any problems with the Alcatel STH
modem?
Or you could be asking, does the Airport Base Station work with iiNet?
So, could you elaborate?
