    I have a netgear wgr614 router. I just set it up through my desktop and want to turn on the pppoe always through the router so that the dsl modem doesn't have to connect everytime I want to connect with my laptop. I can't seem to find the option in the smartwizard. Any hints?

    Sometimes when I try to connect with my laptop I get the "local only" connection (using vista). I hope to avert this by having the router keep the connection always on.
