Hi folks,
here is "DSL howto" for German "T-Online" and ADSL from "Deutsche
Telekom" on a single machine:
1. Install hardware (ADSL-splitter, modem, NIC and cables).
2. Boot Your PC and check the status LEDs on NIC and modem. All should
be green.
3. Set up NIC. Telekom provides in most cases AT-2500 card with comes
with an DOS setup program and DOS packet driver. Install this driver.
4. Get Herbert Hanewinkels ADSL driver from http://www.heha.cjb.net.
Unzip the package.
5. Edit pepa.ini file so that it contains Your login data. It should
look like this:
-w
-l0c
-m 255.255.255.1 ;this is dummy
0.0.0.0 -p
[EMAIL PROTECTED],password
-o
-k -z -q -r
-t0
Have a look at doc files for explanation of these entries.
6. Create batch file to load the drivers and to invoke Arachne.
Example:
a25pv3 0x61 10half ;load packet driver for NIC
lh pepa ? 0x60 pepa.dsl ;load ADSL driver, the ? stands for register
;code
call arachne ;You know this :-)
termin 0x60 ;remove ADSL driver from memory
a25pv3 -u ;remove packet driver
7. Run this batch. If all drivers have loaded properly setup Arachne for
Ethernet connection (connection READY, BOOTP).
8. ENJOY :-)
