Re: RASPPPOE Setup for AOL

ok soo i turn ICS on for the network card that is connectiong the PS2 to PC or to the dailup adaptor i just setup to use the net with out the AOL software?

Sorry Its late/early and networking isnt my think Ill be back tommrrow to get this thing working.....

thanks


Well_Duh

@aol.com

Oh, damn. Only DSL?

Bugger!

Hopefully AOL will make a 'lite' version of their software sometime soon.

If AOL uses the same lines as RR, is it possible to rig it as a RR customer?

From what I know some domains are allowed to be accessed w/o AOL open, such as...
»www.aroundcentralflorida.com/

It it possible to fake an AOL connection to access all domains and IPs?

I just don't get what goes wrong? I did what I stated just yesterday with an XP computer at my friends house and he's running fine over there.

Hollywoood, to make things less painful in the long run then why don't you get yourself a router? In case you tend to network a few computer on the connection.

No no no, there's no need to use protocals when it's done on the hardware. Everything is done on the hardware. After setting up the hardware, it will connect itself online. Any computer connected connected to the router will have instant access to the net. Connect both your Xbox and and PS2 on the available ports. That's it.

Hey Hollywoood, if you really want to start playing now connect your PS2 or Xbox directly with the modem and input the data that you used on the PPPoE (username, password, e.t.c.) and you should be able to connect just fine
Hey

cool thanks Tried plugging modem in to xbox and PS2 and it worked But its a pain in the ass having to un hook and rehook the cbles back up afterwards.....

Still want to get ICS working but for some reason it never works for me any info you can give me to get it working? or a walk thru of some kind?

edit: Also would i be able to get a cheap hub and be able to use that with the aol thru RASPPPOE Setup? and if soo what cables would i need to hook the xbox and PS2 up with? I'm guessing rj45 cable but am not sure....

It's nice to see someone came up with a way to connect to the net without using AOL.

Installing PPPoE clients is not necessary if you going to use a router (WAN).

You have to setup up the router to connect online using PPPoE WAN type.

Umm, is there someplace that explains how you connect n stuff? Does it work with Xbox Live? Do I sign on first to AOL DSL, then dial it? What screen name do I dial? My screen name @aol.com and what pass do I use??

follow the instructions. for password, it's the password for your aol screen name. if your screen name is jdoe123 enter your jdoe123 password you usually use to connect to aol.

Worried about your system crashing? Don't install anything for a trouble free operation.

Ok, so do you dial after you connect to AOL or before? And if it does work and dials fine n everything, all I have to do is try live and it will work?

no, you've got it all wrong. raspppoe eliminates the aol client. to use xbox live, just type in your aol sn and password. that's all.

As bombs stated, this is protocal used to connect to your AOL Broadband DSL service. Don't get confused seeing how it's grouped as a dial-up property (essentially it is) on the Win9x/ME.

I really do suggest you getting yourself a router.

How exactly did you setup your network with your Xbox?

I have already wrote the directions in the first few posts of this thread.

I suggest you educate yourself a little about PPPoE protocols.

»www.carricksolutions.com/pppoe.php

With this setup, you don't have to use the AOL client to connect online since you'll be establishing a connection with your PPPoE instead.

Now as for your Xbox, how did you set it up with your network?

It is possible to connect Xbox directly to your DSL modem and inputting your login information to connect the Xbox online, likewise your PC won't have access to the net until you reconnect it to the DSL modem.
