We suppose that the WISP want to use PPPoE authentication.
From AirOS device with default configuration, set parameters as see below:


  • LINK SETUP Section

    • ESSID: set according with your APs
  • NETWORK Section
    • Network Mode: Router
    • WLAN IP Address: PPPoE
    • PPPoE Username: Customer_PPPoE_username
    • PPPoE Password: Customer_PPPoE_password
    • Enable NAT: on
    • Enable DHCP Server: on (and configure desired Range Start, Range End,Netmask)
    • Enable DNS Proxy: on
  • ADVANCED Section
    • Incoming Traffic Limit: 2048 kbit/s (es: customer profile download up to 2 Mbits)
    • Outgoing Traffic Limit: 256 kbit/s (es: customer profile upload up to 256 kbits)
  • SYSTEM Section
    • Host Name: set a customer IDentifier
