Re: Alcatel Speedtouch PC ADSL Modem

2005-08-15 Thread Vladimir Botka

Hi,
here is the scheme
(ADSL)- Speedtouch 510i -(ETHERNET)- PC(FreeBSD)
As long as you use ethernet there is no difference in what OS you have on 
PC. Speedtouch has a firewall/NAT capability so you can decide where to 
filter/masquerade. It costs ~ $100 new. I have no experience with DSL 
cards. Cheers, Vladimir.

Hi, thanks for the suggestion. Is this a normal DSL
Modem with an ethernet at its back connect to your
desktop or an router? How much did you pay for it? If
it is cheap enuf, I think it is worth to get it as a
standalone DSL  modem.

The reason I want to install freebsd in one of these
DSL modem is because here in Australia ISPs do not
lease out their DSL modem to end user. User will end
up purchase expensive crapy DSL Modem (eg. Netgear)
from computer shop.

As I have a freebsd gateway used to dail-up pppoe thru
an external DSL modem when I was in another country, I
want to reconfigure this freebsd router to make it
able to handle DSL modem communication. But I need to
purchase a DSL modem card for it. If an external DSL
modem like Speedtouch is cheap enuf and provide stable
system enviornment in the DSL Bridge mode, I would
like to purchase one as an external DSL modem.

On the other hand, if you know how to configure
freebsd with a DSL Modem card in freebsd, please let
me know how to do that. And if you also know where to
purchase a barebone DSL Modem (without a system) for
development  purpose (eg. Speedtouch), please also let
me know.

Good idea!  I trust you're going to buy three of them and fix any
problems you have with the package.  Otherwise I can't see why you
sent three copies and copied -current.

Hi,

I'm using the usb (so not the pci version) version of an alcatel
speedtouch adsl modem. Most of the info I found at
http://speedtouch.sf.net, but in the ports there seems to be version of
the pppoa program too (see below). My modem works very fine with the
programs and installation instructions found at the speedtouch.sf.net
site. They even have a FreeBSD version of the program and specific fbsd
installation notes.
