Hi folks

 

Does 2degrees still require users to enter their unique password for PPPoE login, or anything goes?

 

I remember this password could be changed in the old portal, but it doesn't look like this option exists on the new portal anymore. 

 

I want to configure a new router at in-laws and wonder if I still needed the user-specific password.

OK, their help page here seems to imply this is not needed anymore as it uses DHCP now.

 

 

If you have a Fibre connection, use these settings:

 

    WAN Connection Type: DHCP (Automatic IP/Dynamic IP/IP over Ethernet)
    802.1Q: Enabled
    VLAN ID (802.1Q): 10
    802.1P (Priority): 0
    IP Version: IPv4 or IPv6
    MTU Size: 1492 or 1500
    NAT: Enabled
