Well, I was able to get Ubuntu linux to recognize my modem as per the instructions posted here. First, here is the information for Brazil which is currently not available on the list:
Country = .br, Brazil Provider = Brasil Telecom (brturbo) ATM protocol = PPPoE VPI = 0 VPC = 23 Now that that's out of the way on to the problems I encountered. The dial script used to start the modem and connect to my ISP works perfectly up until the ``pppd call speedtch'' line (the last one). My modem is setup perfectly and a network interface is properly created (nas0) which i can ifconfig to my heart's content. But, no internet link is accomplished. The error message that i get is something along the lines of ``pppoe-discovery failed'' and also something about ``PADO'' (I am not at my computer's terminal so I don't have the precise error message, I'm sorry).
