For regular ADSL, try this. The author is clearly in India. I followed it and it works in Beijing, China. (Well, I pointed some minor errors to the author; not sure whether he modified it or not.)

I have an ISP who had provided me with an ADSL modem (made by 'Billion'). Can 
anyone point me to where I can get the necessary drivers for Solaris?

I also tried with the USB generic driver. usb_mid had created the necessary endpoints 
under the directory /dev/usb/<vid>.xxx. But did not know how to setup the chat 
scripts etc for the pppd. Any suggestions in this regard will be helpful.


Any chance that this device has Ethernet as well?  If so, then the
PPPoE implementation in Solaris should help.

I don't believe that ADSL "modems" (really: ATM bridges) present
themselves as normal asynchronous serial or synchronous ports when
used on USB, so you'll very likely need a driver specific to that
device.  (If they did look like normal ports, pppd would work fine,
and I could help with the configuration.)
