Hi, I don't understand why eth0 is involved in the config, if I have an internal adsl card in the LEAF. The documentation talks about PPPoA connection via a NIC, so possibly that is what the below refers to. I won't have that NIC, and will presumably just get something like a ttyS0 which I have to link to ppp0?
