Ok, after 2 days hitting myself against a wall with my little linux experience I ran out of ideas. I recompiled my 2.6.14.3 kernel with rfc2684 support as a module and compiled br2684 utility against it. After modprobe speedtch I can create a nas0 successfully using br2684 -b 1 -e 0 -c 0 -a 0.33 and it is also successfully configured. Then I use ifconfig as suggested in the tutorial using the same IP address and netmask my ISP assigns under windows. As far as I understand, since there is no PPPD involved, the connection should be readily established by now. But it is not.
Should I disable ppp support in the kernel? I'm not issuing pppd commands In windows there is no need to specify any username or password. As soon as the modem synchronizes I can freely browse the web. What am I missing?
