Sounded like that was the case. So here's one for Jim:telecom uses PPPoA for adsl, many modems/routers proxy that to PPPoE or PPTP. PPoP is a new one on me, but ADSL is undergoing some changes. Dunno what connection adsl has to yobbo, perhaps it is just a co-incidence they are using similar protocols.

what is the equipment. I have plenty of 802 11b gear including cards suitable for external aerials.
You could be ok then - 2.4 GigaHertz?
*"Supports [Win... &] Linux(MikroTik & Star-OS)" sounds ok, but obscure?http://www.wisp-router.com
yeah well there are many different cards there! but I take it from looking there that its probably some form of 802.11a/b/g, as that seems to be their main wireless thrust on wisp-router.com. Which takes more configuration in linux than just setting an IP address. For a start you need a compatible card, and often as not compile a driver for your kernel yada yada. winmodem'ish, but if you get a compatible card its fine. So I am officially confused. I might talk to them again, I did a year or so ago.
e.g. *100mW 802.11b Prism 2.5 PCCard with Dual Antenna Ports <http://www.wisp-router.com/product_info.php?products_id=335>
I have to enquire further re which one it is..
Awaiting their reply..
