PPP over Ethernet. A standard protocol for encapsulating PPP frames in Ethernet frames. PPPoE is used in broadband Internet connection, using DSL or cable modem. It provides log-in authentication using username and password. Also see DSL and cable modem.
PPPoE relies on two widely accepted standards: PPP and Ethernet. PPPoE is a specification for connecting the users on an Ethernet to the Internet through a common broadband medium, such as a single DSL line, wireless device or cable modem.
An acronym for PPP over Ethernet.
The protocol that describes how a PC is to interact with a broadband converter box, such as cable modem, when the two are connected by an Ethernet cable, connected to a NIC in a PC.
A protocol that allows DSL providers to meter connection time and to acquire a smaller, cheaper block of IP addresses. PPPoE changes DSL from an always-on to an on-demand service and lets providers reduce the size and cost of their Internet connection infrastructures.
A method for running Point-to-Point Protocol through an Ethernet connection. If you have a DSL ISP, you may be using PPPoE.
A proposal specifying how a host personal computer (PC) interacts with a broadband modem (i.e. xDSL, cable, wireless, etc.) to achieve access to the growing number of high-speed data networks. Relying on two widely accepted standards, Ethernet and point-to-point protocol (PPP), the PPPoE implementation requires virtually no more knowledge on the part of the end user other than that required for standard dial-up Internet access. In addition, PPPoE requires no major changes in the operational model for Internet Service Providers (ISPs) and carriers.
Point to Point Protocol over Ethernet is mainly used by DSL users. Similar to a dial-up connections (which use PPP - Point to point Protocol), a PPPoE connection usually starts with a DSL dialer program that uses a username and password to login to the PPPoE server and secure an IP Address. THPS3 can be configured to use DSL PPPoE connections - please see the Step-by-Step Setup Guide for DSL connections.
PPP over Ethernet - The standard created in order to check the user name and password of a user who uses a network like Ethernet with dial-up connection (PPP connection). PPPoE is a new technology that is expected to be the mainstream for using DSL in the future.
Point to Point Protocol over Ethernet is a networking protocol that is used extensively in the First Step wireless network.
PPP over Ethernet (PPPoE) provides the ability to connect a network of hosts over a simple bridging access device to a remote Access Concentrator (Server).
oint-to- oint rotocol ver thernet. An authentication protocol commonly used by DSL providers to force their users to "log in" to the service. To be used through a router, PPPoE must be supported by the router's firmware.
PPPoE is the acronym for Point-to-Point Protocol over Ethernet.

Short for Point-to-Point Protocol over Ethernet, PPPoE relies on two widely accepted standards: PPP and Ethernet. PPPoE is a protocol that allows users to log on and off from their high speed or broadband internet connection.
Point to Point Protocol over Ethernet. This internet language is primarily used by DSL Internet Service Providers to establish a connection with their customers over regular phone lines. This type of broadband usually requires a username and password to connect to the internet.
Point-to-Point Protocol over Ethernet (RFC 2516). Another PPP protocol in use by providers. This one is more common, and there are several Linux clients available. See the Links section for more. Not to be confused with PPPoA (PPPoATM) since there are fundamental differences.
(Point to Point Protocol over Ethernet) - A type of broadband connection that provides authentication (username and password) in addition to data transport.
Point-to-Point Protocol over Ethernet. PPP form when used by some ISPs for DSL and cable modem authentication. Supported by bridging functions. Specification for connecting multiple computer users on an Ethernet LAN to a remote site through common CPEs or modems. Can be used to have an office or MTU users share a common DSL, cable modem or wireless connection to the Internet. Combines PPP with Ethernet, which supports multiple users in a LAN. PPP information is encapsulated within an Ethernet frame.
Acronym for Point-to-Point Protocol over Ethernet. A specification for connecting users on an Ethernet network to the Internet by using a broadband connection (typically through a DSL modem).
A technology that enables an ISP to require users to log in to an always-on Internet connection, something that wouldn't otherwise be necessary. PPPoE stands for PPP over Ethernet.
(Point-to-Point Protocol Ethernet) - A standard that enables dial-up networking capabilities over Ethernet.
Point-to-Point Protocol over Ethernet. Network protocol that encapsulates PPP frames in Ethernet frames and connects multiple hosts over a simple bridging access device to a remote access concentrator.
A method of transmitting PPP traffic over Ethernet to the Internet through a common broadband medium. Commonly used in Europe. The users have the appearance of "dialing" the Internet, but their computers are in fact always connected.
