PPPoE (Point-to-Point Protocol over Ethernet)

PPPoE (Point-to-Point Protocol over Ethernet) is a method used by many internet service providers to connect your computer or router to their network over Ethernet cables. It combines the Point-to-Point Protocol (PPP), which manages login and authentication, with Ethernet, a common wired networking technology. This allows your device to establish a secure, authenticated connection to the internet through your Ethernet connection. PPPoE is particularly common in DSL internet services, providing a way to manage multiple user accounts and ensure secure, reliable access.
