2003-01-10 Thread Martin Drautzburg
The strange thing is that you don't get any messages. You may want to check the following things: No messages: o check you /etc/syslog.conf. Maybe pppd messages aren't logged o run ls -ltr on /var/log/messages. Maybe pppd messages go to another file o run strace pppd ... . This is a last resort

I just want to tell everybody that I finally got USB+Linux+Deutsche Telekom working. I will write a summary shortly and post it here and put it on a wiki. For now: The problem was to get pppoe working, i.e. to make the modem look like an ethernet card. The br2684 aproach did not solve the problem

Someone in a dsl newsgroup told me that the Deutsche Telekom uses pppoe and not pppoa. Frankly I did not quite understand. Does it really matter how I speek to my modem ? I guess it does. Does the "other side" speek ip-over_ppp-over_ethernet-over_atm and a simple ip-over_ppp-over_atm won't do ? S
