Configuring VCs
The Wireless ADSL Router supports multiple VCs (Virtual Circuits) on the ADSL connection.
VC1 must be used for general-purpose Internet access. The other VCs are available for special
purposes, such as Video-on-Demand.
You can only use these VCs if supported by your ISP and ADSL service provider. In that case,
they will provide the necessary configuration data.
Some ISP's allow multiple PPPoE connections. This allows
multiple PCs to connect to the Internet using PPPoE client
software. When using the Wireless ADSL Router, multiple
PPPoE connections are neither necessary nor supported.
