Now I'm getting confused. I guess I'll have to be ready to set either
one up.
Thanks for the info guys.

You can usually tell from the modem you're using. The GTE one is
a Fujitsu/Orkit and uses DHCP. The BellAtlantic one uses modems from
Efficient Networks/Siemens, Westell and Alcatel and uses PPPoE. What was
the name of the telco before it was Verizon, that's one way to tell.

The way it works is the the Verizon known as BellAtlantic requires
PPPoE while the Verizon known as GTE doesn't. BA uses a ATM network
while
GTE uses a Frame Relay based network.
Verizon West formerly known as GTE used to use only Frame Relay. They are
now using both Frame Relay and
I thought there were some GTE territories on the east coast as
well. Not all Verizon West territories have the ATM yet since the FR
networks can be at a minimum of T1 speed but the ATM requires atleast a
DS3. In Hawaii, 90% of the DSLAM's are still FR.

I guess I need to get the goods on ppp setup now.
Does this replace dhclient, or should I simply tweak that config to

Thanks a million.
