Here is the script for my connection it's debian so might not work for you but to restart manually do killall modem_run killall pppd 'Restart hotplug' which just unloads then reloads all usb modules Then run your startup script ---------------------------------------- #!/bin/sh case "$1" in start) echo -n "Starting ADSL: " sleep 10 /usr/sbin/modem_run -m -f /usr/share/speedtouch/mgmt.o /usr/sbin/pppd call adsl echo "done." ;; stop) echo -n "Stoping ADSL: " killall modem_run killall pppd echo "done." ;; restart) echo -n "Restarting ADSL: " $0 stop >/dev/null /etc/init.d/hotplug restart >/dev/null sleep 5 $0 start >/dev/null echo "done." ;; *) echo "Usage: /etc/init.d/speedtouch {start|stop|restart}" exit 1 ;; esac exit 0 Liste de diffusion modem ALCATEL SpeedTouch USB Pour se désinscrire : mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]
