Hi,
I have just installed (several times) Mdk 9.2 DE with a network card and
Sagem Fast 800 usb adsl modem (Free dégroupé).
During install, I chose to configure network in expert mode. Adsl + lan was
detected (impressive!). Modem recognise as pppoe but I changed it for Sagem
(dhcp) . After some irrelevant questions (password, name of the ISP, ...), I
configured the lan eth0 with static ip. At the end oddly the summary showed only
the adsl sagem dhcp where it should have shown "adls usb sagem (dhcp) - lan". I
didn't try to bring up the network up at that time for updates.
First boot. Modem recognized, initialised and got synchronisation
automatically. But no ip could be obtained after 2 minutes. In fact I checked
and the configuration file /etc/analog/adiusbadsl.conf had:
VCI=0023 instead of VCI=0024
Encapsulation=0006 instead of Encapsulation=0004
I corrected this and rebooted.
Second reboot: great everything worked.
Here are some oddities though:
1) Drakconnect tells that the internet connection is lan where it should say
adsl.
2) I have weird "deconnection". The modem eth1 still has its ip but route
blocks while displaying the default route (or gateway). In order to correct this
I tried resarting the internet service ("/etc/rc.d/init.d/internet restart"). It
hung at starting it back. I had to killed it. The internet service was now down.
I unplugged the modem and replugged it. It is correctly detected but depending
on its mood it isn't synchronised (nor it seems does it have firmware). In this
latter case I do "adictrl -w" which seems to do the trick. I finally start the
internet "internet start" and everything is back on.
I am not an expert at all so I may have used the wrong words or not give
enough description. If you want me to do anything more, feel free to ask.
Clement Menier/

Following bug 5690, there's still some work to achieve to make it work flawlessly
Here's the translation from a thread on eagle-usb forum
http://fast800.tuxfamily.org/forums/read.php?f=1&i=6761&t=6761
- in /etc/analog/adiusbadsl.conf, replace
VCI=0024 (instead of 23) and Encapsulation=0004 (instead of 6)
- files pap-secrets and chap-secrets are modified, which is useless as ppp is
not used with Free Dégroupé, /etc/ppp/peers/adsl does not seem created though
(which is correct)
- connection in action tries to launch both dhclient and dhcpd (one should be
enough, static configuration may be better in the end, just a suggestion below)
: erasing dhclient package makes it work correctly (to be reproduced)
Doing all this, /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/net_cnx_up launches dhcpcd and
establishes the connection (as soon as Free makes it's own work).
Suggestion : dhcpcd is an heresy IMHO, asking for the static IP may be better in
order to configure (and establish) the connection, which would happen this way
/sbin/ifconfig eth1 @ip_static netmask 255.255.255.0 up
/sbin/route add default gw IP_GATEWAY
ip_static should be asked to the user (there's *always* a way to know it, either
with an URL or with a mail from the ISP)
I haven't yet found a way to determine IP_GATEWAY automatically : it depends on
the interface which is mounted.
This static manner of connection is correct for Telefonica "IP fija" in Spain as
the eagle-usb driver - formerly known as adiusbadsl - works with Sagem Fast800,
Comtrend CT-350 and AT-AR215 as well, modems distributed by many ISP worldwide
France, Spain, Germany, Poland, England to name a few... (VCI may have to be
adapted, though).
