Probably yes, it depends what you ISP supports. The pppoa3 driver basically receives ATM frames, extracts the cell data removing the AAL5 headers and then passes it on. You may need to play around with the tty options that are set up, IIRC the async option sets up the tty the way you would want while the sync option transmits the data the way you would need so a bit of hacking would be required. Which ISP are you with? Tim. -- God said, "div D = rho, div B = 0, curl E = - @B/@t, curl H = J + @D/@t," and there was light. http://tjw.hn.org/ http://www.locofungus.btinternet.co.uk/ Liste de diffusion modem ALCATEL SpeedTouch USB Pour se désinscrire : mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]?subject=unsubscribe
