My ADSL isn't working. I'll be as verbose as possible to try to give
some smart person some clues about what is wrong
It was installed this morning. They offered me a USB installation, but
when I declined they gave me a SMC 1102 TX 10/100 Ethernet card. I have
compiled support into the kernel (2.4.0-test12), and the NIC is working,
i.e., if I do:
$ifconfig eth0 10.0.0.1 up
$ping -c 50 10.0.0.1
I get a stream of pings back. And then from:
$ ifconfig eth0
eth0 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr 00:E0:29:73:83:4A
inet addr:10.0.0.1 Bcast:10.255.255.255 Mask:255.0.0.0
UP BROADCAST RUNNING MULTICAST MTU:1500 Metric:1
RX packets:610 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0
TX packets:547 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0
collisions:0 txqueuelen:100
Interrupt:10
I've edited /etc/ppp/peers/provider to give:
$ cat /etc/ppp/peers/provider
mtu 1492
mru 1492
pty "pppoe -I eth0 -T 80"
noipdefault
defaultroute
hide-password
lcp-echo-interval 20
lcp-echo-failure 3
noauth
persist
user writeme
and I've added the line:
writeme * <mypassword>
but when I enter the command pon, nothing happens, 'cept the Alcatel
"speed touch home" flashes at me smugly. The relevant part of
/var/log/debug is:
cat /var/log/debug

It almost looks like I have the password wrong, but I have double
checked, (I don't). Any ideas?
