Re: Alcatel Speed Touch PC

[Bob Bishop]

Hi,

I wonder if there's any planned support for Alcatel Speed Touch PC (a ADSL 
PCI card) I think there are some linuxdrivers but what could be needed for 
FreeBSD support?

Contact the guys listed on http://www.xsproject.org/speedtouch/ (bottom of 
the page).

That's the Speedtouch USB, not the PCI card.

Given Alcatel's refusal to provide info on the Speedtouch USB, I
wouldn't be too optimistic.

I would like to know as well cause right now I have made it work under
linux using the driver from sourceforge and a patched pppd supporting
PPPoATM and I would say it works pretty stable under 2.4.18. Maybe it
would get to work under Linux emulation but I have never tried so I
would like to know if anyone here has.

 Legimate way to get Alcatel firmware. It can be extracted from various
 windows drivers but thats not very clean way. And of course 
 driver for
 whatever ATM SAR chip Alcatel uses (most SARs are documented).

1)  Knowing that there were Linux drivers, rather than just
thinking it,

OR

obtaining the necessary programming documentation from
the board manufacturer

2)  Someone with the card, and other resources necessary to
test a FreeBSD port of the driver (e.g. an active ADSL
line)

3)  Someone willing to do the FreeBSD driver implementation

 4) Checking out net/pppoa

5)  Getting a frustrated look on your face, trying to figure out
how to plug a PCI card into a USB connector
