pppoeconf is useless for me,when I run it detects eth0 but after some checks it outputs: Sorry,I scanned 1 interface but the access concentrator of your provider did not respond.Please check your network and modem cables.Another reason for the scan failure may also be another running pppoe process which controls the modem.
I have a SpeedTouch ADSL modem connected through Ethernet and the modem is configured through a webbrowser interface and when I test using this interface the connectivity all is OK and the 4 LEDs of the modem are green: DSL OK ATM OK Ethernet OK PPP OK IP OK Internet OK Connectivity with the gateway(xxx.xx...) OK Connectivity with the DNS server 1 OK Connectivity with the DNS server 2 OK However when I use a webbrowser to access a webpage it tries and I see the address bar of the webbrowser changing rapidly between two http addresses of my ISP and repeating the same. http://xxx.xx.xxx.xx:yyyy/parse-query.php?GEDSTART... http://something.myISP.xx/images/errors/jst_tests.html... and I donĀ“t see anything(white window) in the browser window.I suspect I need to do manually what pppoeconf could not do and I need help and instructions to configure manually pppd and pppoe to access the Internet. Thanks. ____________________________________________________________________________________ Looking for last minute shopping deals? Find them fast with Yahoo!
