Windows 10: Set up dial-up broadband connection (PPPoe) - how it works

If Windows 10 does not automatically detect your network, you can set up dial-up broadband (PPPoE) manually. We'll tell you exactly how to do this.

Windows 10: Start setup for a dial-up broadband connection (PPPoE)

Windows 10 - like the previous versions of Windows - offers a wizard with which you can manually set up a dial-up broadband connection (PPPoE). You have to start this wizard first.

1. To do this, open the Control Panel under Windows 10. This works best by searching for "Control Panel" in the Start menu.
2. In the new window, click on "Network and Sharing Center" in the "Network and Internet" category.
3. Now click on the option "Set up a new connection or a new network" (see screenshot).
4. The setup wizard opens in a new window.

Set up dial-up broadband connection (PPPoE) under Windows 10

1. In the setup wizard, select "Connect to the Internet" and click "Next".
2. Then click on "Broadband (PPPoE)".
3. Enter the user name and password for the connection at the top. You can obtain the data from your provider or your system administrator.
4. Tip: To avoid having to re-enter the password every time you connect, check the box next to "Save this password".
5. Then give the connection a name and click "Connect" to complete the setup.
6. Note: If you have not received your access data by letter or email, you may have included a CD to set up from your provider. In this case, click on the link "There is no Internet service provider", insert the CD and follow the instructions.
