OK, so no more complex than ADSL, then. With my ADSL connection, the only parameters I remember needing to configure were the VPI (“Virtual Path Identifier”) which was 0, and the VCI (“Virtual Circuit Identifier”) which was 100. I think these numbers were common across NZ ISPs. Presumably I can get these parameters from the router, if I am provided with one. Are your numbers the same as above? It would be nice to think they carried over a compatible convention ...
