Quick question: Can I have my SpeedTouch Home (ethernet flavour) handle
all the PPPOE aspects of my DSL connection or must I have a PPPOE client
on my Dach box? I'd like to avoid having to rebuild my Dach box with a
PPPOE client, if at all possible.
I liked my previous high-speed cable service, where all I had to do was
have my dach box be a dhcp client.
If it (all PPPOE handling) can be done with the STHome how do I do it?
I've followed all the instructions that I could find on the net (nuke
all phonebook entries, add in a phonebook entry for ppp, add the ppp
element, set to AlwaysOn, etc) but still no love. In the phonebook I use
the VC/VP entry that works 100% when in 'bridged' mode, namely 0/35.
I'm located in Pickering, Ontario. My ISP is NutNBut.Net but I feed from
a local BellCanada CO and thus should be able to do this if Sympatico
users can do it.
Thanks,
scott
BTW: I have upgraded the firmware to the latest revision, .281 and have
performed the hack to enable 'Pro' features on my 'Home' model.
I am presently able to connect my WinXP box to this modem, and using
XP's built-in PPPOE support can connect onto the internet so everything
is in workable shape.
