Re: RASPPPOE Setup for AOL

One more thing to note.

If you have XP, I suggest using the Native PPPoE. It'll be simpler to set it up for that matter. You're choice.

I downloaded the RASPPPoE and it is working but I'm still having a problem with xbox asking me for my DNS server #. Do you have any advice?

So what your saying is, I can connect using a different screen name than the one I use to connect live. For ex.

I connect using the PPOE on my screen name. And when it disconnects me, I can use a different screen name and it won't sign me off Live?

How come when I use live, I can't use the internet? I right-click on the thing and it says Connect but I'm playing live, and if I were to connect, it would disconnect live? So, why does it do that?
Did you use different screen names for every PPPoE session you conduct?

Worried about your system crashing? Don't install anything for a trouble free operation.

Also, is this a safe connection? I'm jus wondering....
Nope. The internet is never safe unless you get yourself a firewall of some sort.

Yes, you have it correct. What do you mean by "...that specific screen name in the Xbox setup." It still doesn't work cat 5 goes to the one that says Uplink.... I don't understand why its not working...No ip address is what it says.
OK, Since you have the Modem connected to the uplink port, remember that Port 1 cannot be used.

Use a screen name on the account not used by the other computers on the network and enter your password for that screenname.

And to follow the login in name followed in the format yourscreennmae@aol.com

So for example my screenname Jet88372

Then I type Jet88372@aol.com and password for that account.

Ok it goes, Xbox to hub, then there is a connection from the hub to the computer, cat 5 from downstairs that goes into a hub then to dsl modem
Okay, let me see if I get this picture straight.

Both of your computers (both upstairs and downstairs) and your Xbox are connected to the Hub. Port 1 not not be used since your DSL Modem is connected to the Uplink port on the Hub correct?

Is my description of your network correct?

All computers, including the Xbox, must use different screen names in order for all of them to connect online.

Your Xbox should be able to go online if you just enter yourscreenname@aol.com as the login name with your password to that specific screen name in the Xbox setup.
