CenturyLink Fiber to Ethernet Handoff w/Zyxel USG 20 firewall/router…
I just installed a CenturyLink fiber to ethernet handoff at my office. CenturyLink included an Actiontec modem/router, but it doesn’t meet my needs (eg: VPN, etc.). Does anyone know how to program a Zyxel USG 20 to work with the ethernet handoff? Please note this service still requires a PPPoE authentication. CenturyLink engineers stated I should be able to use my firewall/router since it’s a true ethernet handoff, however, they aren’t allowed to provide guidance in programming. Zyxel support engineers weren’t much help. Thanks in advance.
If you have the PPPoE username & password (if required) then configuration is fairly straight forward.
1) option Configuration, Network, PPP
2) Select the right interface and configure by setting up the fields.
(I don't have a 20 available, i have access to USG 200 & USG 60;
On the 60 I need to create an account profile (Username / Password).
In my case with fake entries as the ISP doesn't verify them, and the USG does require a profile).
