Remember that all these assumes that your router is connected to the LAN port, if it’s connected to the USB port, then disconnect it and connect to the LAN port. If you dont have a LAN card, then consider getting one. It’s cheap, costs around Rs. 200.
Next, it’s best to have the router configured in pppoe mode. In this case you just have to switch on the router, the router and DHCP will take care of the rest.
If you’re unsure whether your router is in PPPoE more or bridge mode, If you have used a dialer in Windows, then your router is in bridge mode. In this case, open the terminal and type
sudo pppoeconf
Next, answer yes to all questions and enter the username and password when prompted.
Please note that this is a one type setup.

To connect, open the terminal and type
pon dsl-provider
To terminate the connection type
