[speedtouch] Re: Modem firmware seems to be working fine, but I cannot access the Internet

2007-07-20 Thread Duncan Sands

Hi, try adding debug to pppd.  For example, if you normally do
pppd call speedtch
try
pppd call speedtch debug
This should output all kinds of info to your system logs (not
to the console).  Please send the output here.

Thanks,

Duncan.

Done.  It doesn't seem to have output that much information, though.
Among a bunch of GNOME errors, which is funny because I don't even use
GNOME, there was this:

Jul 20 23:36:52 localhost pppd[5509]: Plugin rp-pppoe.so loaded.
Jul 20 23:36:52 localhost pppd[5509]: In file /etc/ppp/peers/speedtch:
unrecognized option 'nas0'

This is exactly what the console reported, as well.  There was nothing
else under syslog.  I do not know what nas0 is.  I also have debug
turned on in the speedtch file, but it seems not to give me any
useful information.

Should I remove the nas0 option?

What else can I say?  The modem's working fine in Windows, or I
wouldn't be able to send this message.  Bloody winmodems.

Also, an interesting fact, I noticed that the resolv.conf file was
empty and just added the OpenDNS servers, which are the only ones I
know by memory.  Now, any attempt to ping or opening up a site takes a
minute before reporting a failure.  Before doing this, failure reports
were instant.
