Currently I have this setup:

D-Link DSL2640U connected to the phone line:
- VPI/VCI 0/40, Service Category UBR Without PCR
- Service pppoe_0_40_3
- Interface nas_0_40
- Protocol Bridging (LLC/SNAP-Bridging)
- 802.11q not enabled
- Bridge Service Enabled
Computers have individual PPPoE connections (in Network and Sharing Centre -> Set up a new connection or network -> Connect to the Internet -> Broadband (PPPoE) -> Username and Password)

How would I move these settings on each individual PC to the router so that all I need to do is connect to the wireless? I have been unsuccessful setting up anything other than Windows PCs on the network (I have tried Macs, iOS and Nokia SmartPhones too).

Thanks for the responses in advance!
