Re: [newbie] SBC Yahoo DSL Problem

[Robert]

I myself have gotten SBC Yahoo DSL in my house. It was the first broadband provider to get into this neighborhood. I have only gotten the XP desktop and my iBook connecting to the DSL wireless router, but before that my problem with the DSL modem and nic card provided SBC took me sometime to hood up primarily since I ended up getting ahead of myself. Other than that I still have two machines to hook up. One is an older iMac and the other is a Linux box running LM 8.0. I am getting a wireless PCI card for it. I don't believe I will have any trouble getting it there.

With my particular set up my biggest problem was the NetGear wireless router. I had never dealt with a router so I was learning and hook up the thing at the same time.

If get it working I will post my results to the list.

Good luck.

Has anyone on this list been successful getting Mandrake 9.0 or RH8.0 to work on SBC Yahoo DSL? I had been using DirectvInternet DSL for over a year on my AMD 500 system so I know there is no hardware problem. If you had luck using SBC DSL, pleae let me know what you did to get it to work... I've tried auto and manual approaches, but so far have not had any luck. I have the primary and secondary DNS nos. and IP address, but manually configuring does not seem to work...

Thanks, Mick
