Not correct. Bezeq uses at least one new non USB ADSL which is compatible with Linux and we had report on this list from people (Hetz, it was you, no?) that managed to get one of the USB modems working too. > 3.

In fact, as Doron Shikmoni pointed out on this list in the past you can even set the Bezeq supplied Alcatel modems to workj in PPPoE mode quite easily if you're willing to fiddle with the ADSL modem's setting via it's web interface.
