Dave-
I have switched over to the Cisco, since the internal (infernal) Intel 2100
would not provide net access for Linux. Where am I falling down in the
configuration process?

Subject: Re: [newbie] ADSL setup
I am using Qwest DSL and Mandrake 7.2 at this very moment. So I know it
works. Question: do you have the Cisco 67x router, or just the internal
NIC? I am running the Cisco, which has its own DHCP server built-in. I had
to configure the DHCP server to provide my DNS servers and default
gateway. I set both my Windows and Mandrake boxes to use DHCP, and
everything works perfectly.
