cisco dsl setup

[carl_townshend]

Can anyone tell me how I would set up dsl on my soho router, The config I have seen has the atm0 setup and also a dialler interface setup, Is this the way it must be done , cant you just set it up on the atm interface ?

its a cisco soho 97 router, im doing it via the command propmt, the configs on the web always seem to use a dialler, can I just not set up all the properties on the atm0 interface ?

Carl,

How are you connecting to your ISP, PPPoE, PPPoA or neither? There are different ways to configure you Soho 97. The dialer interface is used mostly for authentication purposes as is the case with some connection methods, again dependent upon what protocol you are using with your ISP.

I am connecting with pppoa, can I just use the atm interface, or does a dialler have to be configured !!
