AOL decided to make their service like most ISPs have it, the use of PPPoE to establish a connection to the internet. This allows anything that is PPPoE compliant to connect to AOL, thus bypassing the AOL Client. This was originally done to allow VoIP connections using the DSL service from AOL.

To use PPPoE, when prompted for login information

Under user name --Type your screen name followed by @aol.com
For example: johndoe123 is your screen name, type johndoe123@aol.com

Under password -- type in your your aol password.

For information about PPPoE, refer to Carrick Solutions
