I’ve been looking for the solution to this for a while, and all the other websites suggested creating a Task running rasdial, which oddly didn’t work on my PC. Creating a simple task did the trick. Thanks a lot!
so once i able to connect the pppoe connection automatically after i log on,i wa s getting disconnected from internet automatically after 10-15 mins of usage .
Thank you for this very useful article. I’m surprised Windows doesn’t provide this as a simple checkbox on the connection dialog.
In my setup I also found it useful to add a shortcut to the task for when the modem resets due to power outage/etc. This was the shortcut:
C:WindowsSystem32schtasks.exe /run /tn “YourTaskFolderYourTaskName”
Not sure if a router would provide auto redial (which was removed in Win 8/10), in which case I’d probably set it up that way.
Worked, but not 100%, looked first in Local Area Connection and it showed “error”.
Next I had to click connect to Broadband, settings opened and then I clicked connect.
I checked again paying more attention and it is working indeed!!! 🙂
The things that ceased disturbance in the Force were that
1. I also omitted “-” before the username and the password
2. I typed my connection name insted of the one you wrote ” Broadband Connection”
3. I also omitted the “….” sign at the connection name.
Thank you again, you made my daily life much more easier! 🙂
Doesn’t work, at startup I get the error 691 – password or user incorrect/unrecognized, something like that. I’m sure they are correct in the task I’ve created, and they also work if I manually connect from Network&Internet>Dial-up>Connect.
**edit**
I got it working. I had to eliminate the “-” before the user and pass in the task because it was trying to connect with “-user” rather than -“user”, same with password.

Really helpful……….thanks
Does it work for startup ?
Thank you, Codrut, for the tutorial! Very clear and concise! Cheers!
In Step 2 sub 2, there is still a mention of “each with a hyphen before them”, please correct it as this contradicts with the example shown.
Thanks for this tutorial, it is helpful and it works!
Problem fixed. Thanks for highlighting it.
Best Sollution here:
Windows has feature to dial connection automatically whenever you start the computer.
Watch this:

Thank you, yes the command should be without the "-" before the user and password. That was changed in a Windows 10 update 🙂 I corrected the tutorial.
It works if you eliminate the hyphens in the rasdial command
Thank you, Codrut, it works but as they said in comments without the “-” before the user and the password.
Big up! Keep Going!
deci pe mine ma bate….am facut exact la fel si mi-a dat eroarea 691.Nu stiu cum sa fac sa porneasca automat netul.Mentionez am RDS!
Error 691 means that either the user or the password are incorrect.
Worked, but not 100%, looked first in Local Area Connection and it showed “error”.
Next I had to click connect to Broadband, settings opened and then I clicked connect.
You dont actually need – before the user and the password , writing it will only get an error and wont work
Thank you for your help dear Mychao,
I managed to do it, using my computer is more fun now! 🙂

Dear Codrut Neagu,
I tried all you wrote but unfortunately it does not work for me. Maybe there is some small setting that is need to be done?
Thank you for your help in advance,

Hi, double check that you did every step exactly as in our tutorial. It should work.
Doesn’t work, at startup I get the error 691 – password or user incorrect/unrecognized, something like that. I’m sure they are correct in the task I’ve created, and they also work if I manually connect from Network&Internet>Dial-up>Connect.
