Setting up PPPoE on DSL / ADSL platform

Hey guys , I am trying to collate data from various sources in finding steps to establish PPPoe connectivity with your ISP after you reinstall the Operating System on the computer. I have not got much help from the internet. Since i am working with a software technical support I get a lot of calls from users where we need to run reinstallation and then pass them on to their respective ISP helpdesks. I would like to jot down all the possible ISP names and how to set up PPPoe conenction after you reinstall your OS. I have started the venture and have updated data on my website : ADSL Modem Set Up Guide « Windows Vista - Shaun’z Blog

Please help me to expand the knowledgebase by providing data about setting up PPPoe conenction with popular ISps like BT , Talk Talk , Tiscali , Orange etc.

Have a little patience, perhaps the people who can help haven't seen your post yet, oh and mine doesn't use PPPoE it uses PPPoA which I believe is more common over here

Try checking DSLreports.com for more info, the only major US ISP that uses PPPoE I think is AT&T. Everyone else is going dynamic as its more reliable and less to go wrong when trying to connect.

Most settings are held in the router so you will not have to alter these settings after a re-install.
