Hi Pat,
I am running RedHat 7.2, also from a clean install. If you want to, you can
mail me directly if you feel that you don't want to fill the mailing list.
Check that you have the lines below in your "/etc/ppp/peers/adsl" file
debug
kdebug 1
so that you get useful log into the message log
Key information:
What is the result of running the "ifconfig" command as root ?
What information is logged in /var/messages ?
You should see something like
in the output from "ifconfig" and
ppp0 Link encap:Point-to-Point Protocol
inet addr:###.###.###.## P-t-P:###.###.###.###
Mask:255.255.255.255
UP POINTOPOINT RUNNING NOARP MULTICAST MTU:1500 Metric:1
RX packets:982 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0
TX packets:833 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0
collisions:0 txqueuelen:3
and something similar to the below in your /var/log/messages file

I am a bit careful posting IP addresses on the WWW, so I have blanked them
out with "###.###.###.###".
You should (obviously) get real numbers there.
Drop me the results of what you have for the above commands, and we'll get
you going !
Regards,
Roger

Subject: [speedtouch] New User: Rh 7.3 and Speedtouch
I guess I am still being processed for this list, so please bear with me if
this message is posted more than once. Let me preface this: I have not used
Linux in about five years while in college. I have used Windows since.
Last week Windows bit it for the last time. I erased both of my drives and
installed RH Linux 7.2 and then 7.3 (clean install). I have followed the
instructions in the How-To and everything seems to work fine with lights and
rebooting the modem but I cannot get any further. I have opened the
browser, but says it cannot find any connection. From the Internet
Connection Wizard, the Alcatel Modem is not seen/listed. Any suggestions
for the next step? Remember, I am new to this, so please don't assume
anything :).
Thanks,
Pat Quick
