Hi, I am considering subscribing to ADSL and prefer getting USB ADSL modem (mostly to avoid yet anotgher card and yet another power supply; as speed is limited to 128k anyway it is not an issue). Provider names as compatible Zyxel Prestige 630 EE and AusLinx AL-2006.
With ZyXEL the problem is, there is 630-11 that is not supported by Linux and 630-41 that is (and 630-13 about which I have no idea). 630 EE seems to be local Russian product name but so far I could not find out if it is compatible with any of the above (well, it is finally chipset that counts ...) It appears that AL-2006 is actually Conexant AccessRunner that is supposed to run under Linux ... but not in SMP kernel :) Now, I need PPP over ATM for this type of modems. Is kernel part already in Mandrake? In general, anybody has experience with these things applied to Mandrake? Assuming I get it finally running and if there is no active support support for Mandrake would it be interesting? TIA -andrey
