 I've just gotten DSL for the first time myself (I've had cable
 before)...but the DSL modem I got from Verizon has an ethernet jack. I
 plugged that into my system, and I can ping the modem. *If* I understand
 this, then it seems that the modem is masquerading, NATing, and I don't
 need to do anything like pppoe.

 Of course, I'll know more Saturday, when, three weeks after they allegedly
 turned up my phone service, I'll have the outside line fixed so I have
 dialtone

Once the user name  and password are set in the DSL modem you are
ready to roll. (assuming you have a dialtone and they have configured
your line properly.)   Our ZTE ADSL modem will do a lot of things,
if I let it. I have it plugged into our IPCop box and then to the
Netgear switch and our home LAN is online.  I do have the ADSL modem
set up to provide DHCP (which we normally get from the IPCop box)  and
I disconnected the IPCop box and connected the ADSL modem directly to
my box, a couple of weeks ago, to be sure  the problem wasn't with my
IPCop box, Switch, etc.  You can set the DNS servers (I use
OpenDNS.com) in the modem. When you connect to it via the web
interface, It will show you the line speed, down and up, so you can
see that you are getting what you are paying for.:-)

 Well, you need ppp and wvdial installed (should be on your
 install
 disk(s)).

 With these installed, you can configure it with
 system-config-network --
 select New, then Modem connection and follow the
 steps.

 
  Thank you
