That sounds quite hopeful. If the firmware loads and the line synchronises the next step is to run ppp to connect with your ISP. If your isp uses PPPoA you'll need a PPPoA aware version of pppd. Do you have a /usr/lib/pppd/2.4.3/pppoatm.so? If so, put these options in a file in /etc/ppp/peers noipdefault defaultroute user '[EMAIL PROTECTED]' noauth updetach usepeerdns plugin pppoatm.so vpi.vci Change [EMAIL PROTECTED] for your username (same as in chap-secrets) and vpi.vci should be the numbers for your country/ISP (in Britain it's 0.38). Then, as root run pppd with the name of that file as an option. So if you called it speedtch that would be pppd call speedtch Good luck Andy Liste de diffusion modem ALCATEL SpeedTouch USB Pour se désinscrire : mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]
