What device are you connecting it to?
Did you check with your isp? many people on here use PPPoE without issues
I am connected straight to the media converter.
ISP router connects easily, but not the Netgear
It happen the same thing with the other Netgear router back home in Romania
no PPPoE
I will re check the login details again to be sure

What media converter/gateway are you plugging it into?
Have you checked with your ISP? Some require you to use their device.
Usually there's a workaround if thats the case but it usually involves a bit of research about your isp/gateway to figure out exactly what steps are needed
