 Most DSL users will probably need to choose a PPPoE connection type. |
Leave other settings such as encryption and SSID at their defaults for now, exit your router's configuration routine, and check your Internet connection. If you still can't access any Web sites, check your router's documentation for troubleshooting advice and call the manufacturer for technical support, if necessary.

What about the big picture?
Wireless is being touted by the Paul Buddes of Australia as being a niche only product/service. Consumers are being led to believe (by what they read) that fixed wire services will always remain supreme over wireless. Anyone with any foresight into the wireless industry will tell you that although this may be true in many instances it is certainly not true in all. Wireless will indeed provide access to delivery of a variety of services without the need for total incumbent infrastrure in areas where this infrastructure exists. The next 2-3 years will see some very exciting new developments in wireless technology and Australians should be made more aware as to the future underlying benefits so that they may prepare themselves now.
