Hi, I'm trying to set up alice sat account using my skystar2 and linux. Alice sat (like Netsystem) is a DVB data provider. It sets up a vpn.
I read http://www.hack-it.net/How-To/Sat-HOWTO-6.html#ss6.5 but... I'm quite confused about what to do. I think I should: 1) Connect using pppd (this is obvious) 2) Load dvb modules. I use dvb_shutdown_timeout=0 option to whatch TV. Is it ok for data? 3) Use szap to tune to the right transponder and set the pid I need. Do I need to let it run? Shall I tell szap the same pid twice? Shall I use 8192? Do I need -r option? 4) Use dvbnet to bring up dvb0_0. I need to set mac and IP address using ifconfig, right? 5) Use pptp (I have upgraded kernel and pppd already): pptp vpn.alicesat.it user <user> 6) Set up routing. I must send all packets trught ppp1(vpn) and its gateway. Now I should be able to use my sat internet account but... I just don't recieve a bit into dvb0_0. Is this procedure right? All kernel messages "sound" like there is no problem. Anyway it just crashes on 2.6.1 when using dvbnet. But it works with 2.4.22. (both kernels are using 2 days old cvs dvb-kernel) Can someone help me?
