You will find that what you have is in actual fact a 4 port dsl router
not a modem.  It acts the same way as any home style internet connection
sharing device works.  It supplies its own dhcpd, nat, firewall etc..
Tel$tra give you these now, you have to specifically ask for the alcatel
dsl modem if you so require to use linux to do all your internet routing
and such tasks.
