NetComm NB1300 ADSL Modem - Advanced PPPoA Mode
In PPPoA Mode the NB1300 will do the user authentication so there is no need for a separate PPP client.
By default, the NB1300 has an internal IP address of 192.168.1.1. Either set your computer to obtain an IP address automatically whereby an IP address will be assigned to your computer via the DHCP capabilities of the NB1300 or manually assign an IP address to your computer within the 192.168.1.x subnet range with a default gateway of 192.168.1.1.
