How to set-up automatic connection instead of ppoe

Not going to happen.. Since it is on a telephone line and you "dial in" you have to use the PPP protocol.. PPP= Point to Point Protocol.. What this does is provide security, traffic monitoring, and compression.  PPPoE allows TCP/IP from ethernet to be sent via a virtual circuit.. similar to dial up another computer with an ethernet port.  DSL doest this because the ISP is based on the telephone lines and if they didn't you could, my guess would be, access the service for free.

In that article, it says that u should have firewalls configured right or they will cause problems with the pppoe connection, is there something I should do if im using windows firewall with sp2, and nortan antivirus and windows antispyware auto protect.
