How do I configure the LAN Modem to use PAP instead of CHAP?

0

A. Password Authentication Protocol (PAP) and Challenge Handshake Authentication Protocol (CHAP) are used to pass your username and password to the remote router. When the LAN Modem dials the remote router it will automatically negotiate the authentication protocol, and will use which ever authentication protocol the remote router requests. The LAN Modem will prefer to do CHAP (which encrypts your password), so if the remote router supports CHAP then this is what will be used.
