> Hi, > > I am trying to setup the Speedtouch 330 ADSL modem under Fedora Core 3. > I have found plenty of tutorials describing the basic steps, but I have > stumbled on the (apparent) disparity between the various firmwares > available. These seem to be the alternatives: > > a) Load the file "alcaudsl.sys" from the windows driver. > b) Load the file "firmware.bin" found on the net. > c) Load the file ZZZL_3.012 available from Thompson. > d) Use a "firmware extractor" to split ZZZL_3.012 into > two different files and load these two into the modem. > > Now, all of these files have totally different sizes, ranging from the > 70KB of the alcaudsl.sys to the more than 700KB of the ZZZL_3.012. It > seems odd that any will do the trick! Can someone please enlighten me > as to what is going on here?... > > Thanks in advance for any help! > Regards, > Jean > > > > Firmaware / bootloader is no more include in alcaudsl.sys starting at driver 3 version. firmware.bin is one of the firmware (found in a apple version driver) working with Rev 0.00,0.01 and 2.00 but not with Rev 4.00 where one ZZZ firmware work. d) solution is a nonsense as you can use the one_file version.
