What to insert for PPPoE Service name to connect to internet
PPPoE stands for Point-to-Point Protocol over Ethernet, it's basically authentication for ISPs
that use Usernames and Passwords to get you connected to the internet.
If your ISP uses PPPoE you'll have to change the 360's settings to
connect to the Xbox Live service.
Your PPPoE info should have been given to you when you signed up for your internet service(some
ISPs even print the info somewhere on your hub/modem), otherwise you'll
have to call them up and get the info from them. It's also important to
know that if you're ISP doesn't use PPPoE you should leave these
settings blank on your 360 or it won't connect.
Since you haven't connected to the live yet I'll assume you're still on the older dashboard so it should go like this:
1. Move to the System area of the Xbox dashboard.
2. Select Network Settings.
3. Select Edit Settings.
4. On the Additional Settings tab, select PPPoE Settings.
5. Use the on-screen keyboard to enter the PPPoE information that was provided to you by your ISP.
6. Select Done.
7. Select Apply and Test when you are prompted to do this.

How do you resest pram
I would try starting the machine up in single user mode you do this by booting your machine up and then immediately press and hold the command (Apple) key and the s key. If you do not know how to reboot press down the command-control-power key at the same time.Once you get white text appearing on a black background at the command line prompt type /sbin/fsck -fy then press return. The machine will then go through some testing and then hopefully it will tell you that your hard drive is okay. If it says that the file system has been modified run the comand again i.e. /sbin/fsck -fy When the fsck command reports that your hard drive is okay type reboot at the prompt and then press return. Hopefully your computer will boot up okay after this.
