try the following procedure. This assumes your ISP is using "routed ip". It doesn't use ppp/pppd at all, however you will need to have atmarp and atmarpd installed (from the atm-tools package, dunno what gentoo calls it). You will need to do this as root. VPI=8 VCI=35 # are you sure it's 35? 36 is more usual LOC_IP=AA.BB.CC.DD # put your static ip address here REM_IP=EE.FF.GG.HH # put your gateway's ip address here ENCAPS=null echo "Starting atmarpd server: " atmarpd -b -l syslog # you don't need to do this if your system starts atmarpd automatically atmarp -c atm0 ifconfig atm0 $LOC_IP netmask 255.255.255.0 mtu 1500 up atmarp -s $REM_IP $VPI.$VCI $ENCAPS route add default gw $REM_IP > Please tell me how I have to go about setting up my connection.
