I have successfully installed on RH 7.3 with no problems, connecting to bt openworld with no kernel recompile, although I don't have any USB 2 equipment.
Does ifconfig ppp0 show any IP addresses? If not check both the user name in the adsl and chap/pap-secrets files. If these are wrong it will show the interface as up but you don't get any IP resources from the remote host! Also make sure that you have no gateway entry in your network adapter configuration, assuming you have a local network interface card. If you used the script to generate the various files, the path is incorrect as it point to /usr/local/bin and not /usr/local/sbin.

Let me also prefix this by writing from a win98 machine so I can't easily swap back to linux to check some of these details: but here goes... Ive installed Red Hat 7.3 which I believe has USB 2 (UHCI) support, PPP and HDLC support, therefore I think I am correct I don't need to recompile the kernel. I've also untared and installed the speedtoch drivers. I've entered the 4 configuration files. If I try to veriy as suggested modprobe ppp_generic, ppp_synctty and n_hdlc I get no output suggesting these are installed The usbcore modprobe reveals nothing but modprobe usb-uhci returns a lengthy output (which I haven't recorded) modem_run etc initialises my speedtouch usb and blinks correctly in sequence and /var/log/messages returns that it is online and rx and tx if I try pppd call adsl and wait t type ifconfig ppp0 then 0 zero bit/bytes have been sent or recieved. If I try to surf with mozilla then www.redhat.com is a host not found error! Any suggestions how I can access the net? Am I on line at all- the log suggest I am? Your help would be appreciated :-) Pete Liste de diffusion modem ALCATEL SpeedTouch USB Pour se d�sinscrire : mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]?subject=unsubscribe Liste de diffusion modem ALCATEL SpeedTouch USB Pour se d�sinscrire : mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]?subject=unsubscribe
