Hi, I'm experiencing the same dificulties as Nuno Teixeira. I believe we use the same internet provider: sapo. Internet access is still no go :(
Anyway, this is what I've done so far: 1 - Added the following to /etc/usbd.conf so that the firmware gets uploaded to the modem as soon as the modem is hotplugged: # Alcatel Speedtouch USB device "Alcatel SpeedTouch USB" devname "ugen[0-9]+" vendor 0x06b9 product 0x4061 attach "/usr/local/sbin/modem_run -f /usr/local/libdata/mgmt.o" 2 - Added if_tap_load="yes" to /boot/loader.conf so that the module gets loaded at startup 3 - Pulled the latest sources from cvs, applied Francois Rogler's 2nd patch for pppoa3, compiled and installed it 4 - Configured /etc/ppp/ppp.conf to include the following: default: set log phase chat ipcp ccp tun command sapo_adsl: set authname ********* set authkey ********* set device PPPoE:tap0 set mru 1492 set mtu 1492 set speed sync # accept chap # accept pap set timeout 0 enable lqr set lqrperiod 5 set cd 5 set redial 15 10000 set dial set login set ifaddr 10.0.0.1/0 10.0.0.2/0 255.255.255.0 0.0.0.0 add default HISADDR enable dns 5 - start pppoa3: pppoa3 -b -vpi 0 -vci 35 -v 1 -c 6 - check pppoa3 log file: tail -f /var/log/pppoa3.log Jul 13 19:31:57 furaossos pppoa3[520]: pppoa3 version 1.2-beta2 started by root (uid 0) Jul 13 19:31:57 furaossos pppoa3[520]: Control thread ready Jul 13 19:31:57 furaossos pppoa3[520]: Modem found!

And keeps hanguping and redialing for ever... What may be causing this? Any help would be much welcome. I'm running FreeBSD 5.1-CURRENT as from last weekend The firmware I'm using is the one from windows (alcaudsl.sys) Nuno Teixeira, please keep me posted if you get lucky! Obrigado! =) Anyway keep up the good work! Thanks Nuno Antunes Liste de diffusion modem ALCATEL SpeedTouch USB Pour se désinscrire : mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]
