| I am experiencing similar problems with a PPPoE internet connection and an Airport Extreme base station. I have a DLink DSL302g ADSL modem, and when I connect it directly via an ethernet cable to either an iBook with 10.3.5, or a PC notebook with Win XP, there is no problem making the connection to the internet service provider. When the ethernet cable is plugged in to the WAN port of the Airport Extreme base station, both the iBook and the PC notebook can connect to the wireless network, but the base station won't connect to the internet. The message on the iBook is "Looking for PPPoE host ..." and it never finds it. I had everything working for a couple of months, from about March to June of this year, then things suddenly stopped working, and I've been looking for a solution ever since. I've done things like do a hard reset of the base station, and redo the setup, but no change to the problem. Any suggestions greatly appreciated.
