I recently got a router and now have two PCs attached to it and subsequently to my DSL modem. In windows I’ve configured it so that the router is always connected to the net and I no longer have to dial into Sympatico to get onto
the net. Unfortunately this does not work with PPPOE in linux (I still have to plug into the modem directly from the PC and connect with ‘adsl-start’ to
get the connection to be able to surf). How can I set up PPPOE so that it automatically has the connection thru the router? Is there something specific in Linux that I have to setup to have the router continuously connected to the net as in windows?
Never had a router before and am uncertain how to get it to work with linux.
Any suggestions of how or where to look for the answers would be great. THX!
