All Modems use PPPoA to connect to Telecom's network. (RFC 2364). I've found
these days that most modems come with New Zealand Specific Instructions, but
I still find some users ring up asking "what do I set it to" and all I do is
tell them exactly whats on the instructions in front of them that came with
the Modem.
