As you say nothing, it may be that you use routed IP, you would need to find a way to confirm that. To be very basic, there is three layers of protocols to use ADSL on your IP network : - first level is atm, it's simple, same for all - second level, that's more complicated, there is three major differents protocols with two flavors: Each of these three could be used with VC-mux or LLC flavors but not all combinations are currently used * bridged ethernet : mainly used with PPPoE on top * routed IP :could work with static IP (or dhcp but not under linux) * PPPoA :simple, nothing more on top of it third level, there is way to attribute the IP: - this is IPCP under all PPP flavors (PPPoE, PPPoA), mostly nothing special to do - it could be dhcp or static IP under routed IP and maybe bridged ethernet Concerning static IP and routed IP, you need to note under windows : - your local IP - the gateway IP of the remote router (could have same three first parts of the IP, only the fourth part is different and probably 254 or 1) - network mask (probably 255.255.255.0) Those settings are displayed on the fourth last lines when you do ipconfig /all The last line is for dns Frankly, it is not simple to set under linux if your distribution does not support that directly and you do not have any technical background.

Hi thanks for the file I have it know but is still not working. I use the command you told me chmod 755 name of file, and did that on the firmware-extractor file and also in the firmware I am going to use on my modem rev4fw.zip and it worked it changed the permission on those files the little padlock item went away. But when I tried to extract the file using the firmware-extractor software it gave me an error message I typed this: firmware-extractor rev4fw.zip And the operating system said Bash: firmware-extractor: command not found Martin <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> escribió: On Sat, 2007-01-06 at 01:09 -0500, Nair Diaz wrote: > Until I know Linux does not work with file extensions that is only a file > name for Linux he will only look for configurations or scripts, it depends > on the type of file, I donÿt think that windows can corrupt the file, but is > a good idea to use fire fox. Windows can and does under certain circumstances. Windows uses the convention that end of line is represented by two characters, carrage return and end of line - unlike the rest of the world who just use end of line (I mean - what else would you use to represent the end of a line?). Windows tools being 'helpful' tend to 'correct' single end of line to double end of line. Most *NIX tools are fairly tolerant and accept double end of line - but not all. Thus sometimes (normally by editing) working with a file in Windows can give the apperance of corrupting it. These errors are hard to find because they literally refer to things you can't see.

Until I know Linux does not work with file extensions that is only a file name for Linux he will only look for configurations or scripts, it depends on the type of file, I dont think that windows can corrupt the file, but is a good idea to use fire fox. -Mensaje original- De: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] En nombre de Rosendo Taylor Enviado el: Viernes, 05 de Enero de 2007 02:34 p.m. Para: speedtouch@ml.free.fr Asunto: [speedtouch] Re: How to start Hi To be honest haven't have time between work and all the daily things I do in my house to continue working on this, but I wanted you to know that I am very thank full for all your help, I will be doing all this work saturday night until sunday.
