As posted on Mandrake Forum Monday 27 May, draknet has problems with this
USB ADSL modem. It detected it, part-configured it and told me where to
download the firmware from.
I got the firmware and reran draknet, which produced /etc/ppp/peers/adsl
with empty values for vpi and vci (pppoa will not work so). It ought to
be trivial for draknet to insert these values. `man pppoa3` gives
vpi.vci = 8.48 for Netherlands
8.35 for France
8.67 for France (bis)
8.35 for Belgium
8.35 for Italy
0.38 for UK
Whenever I use draknet to configure, it blanks the vpi and vci settings
again.
Anyway, having set those values manually I was able to to make connection
using scripts from benoit papillault
(http://benoit.papillault.free.fr/speedtouch/user.php3) but, after using
`/usr/share/speedtouch/speedtouch.sh stop` it stops but restart is not
possible. This could be a USB problem.
