Windows Me – Schnelleres und stabileres DSL mit den RasPPPoE Treibern

Die neuartige DSL (Digital Subscriber Line) ermöglicht blitzschnelle Datenübertragung im Internet. Live Übertragungen, großen Downloads und umfangreicher Musik steht nichts mehr im Wege – sie bietet zu anderen Internetverbindungen eine bis zu vielfach höhere Geschwindigkeit. Der blitzschnelle Aufbau von Internetseiten ermöglicht das rapide Auffinden von Informationen. Falls Sie einen DSL Anschluss mit Modem haben können Sie diesen ganz leich unter Windows Millennium einrichten.

Robert Schlabbach has written special drivers for this purpose, which usually work faster and without problems than the device drivers from Telekom or other DSL providers. Unfortunately, the installation is somewhat more complicated than is the case with the simple installation programs, e.g. for T-DSL. We will guide you step by step through the simple installation process:

1. Click hereto download the RasPPPoE drivers from Robert Schlabbach's website. These are usually in compressed form, which is why I recommend WinAce, which easily extracts all types of compressed files. Here to find out how to access WinAce.

2. In the start menu, you must now select the entry Settings and immediately afterwards System control select. Now double-click on the icon Network.

3. A new window opens in which you can click on Add and immediately afterwards double click on Protocol snap.

4. Once you have done this, leave the list of logs that appears behind you and directly select Data carrier.

5. In the window that appears, click on Browse und hangeln Sie sich direkt bis zu dem Ordner ihrer Festplatte durch, in welchem sich die RasPPPoE Treiber befinden. Dort finden Sie drei INF Dateien vor – es spielt keine Rolle, welche Sie nehmen. Entscheiden Sie sich z.B. für netpppoe.inf.

6. The name of the driver now appears in the list, which you can select with Next confirm. Windows will ask you to restart and once you have done this you can get down to business: The first dial-in with Windows Me!

He then went on to write elsewhere, such as for PC-Praxis, Computer Bild and PCWorld in the USA. Microsoft also poached him from us. Now Sandro is back, finally sharing his tweaks here again.
