Buffalo ADSL Modem/WiFi router

I spent a few hours today, trying to set up the Buffalo WBMR-HP-GN ADSL modem/wifi router.

The set up was easy, with one small problem: I couldn’t get it to connect to the internet (which is kind of a big deal for an ADSL modem…).

Anyway, the following article solved the problem:

Basically, when using PPPoA, the SERVICE NAME should be left blank…

I noticed that a couple of people had returned their modems on Amazon and left bad feedback as a result.
