ah ok. But I thought you only had to load the firmware once. Or maybe I have misunderstood it. But it does work and is a lot faster than using the speedtouchConf script. >>How would I go about to do this automatically on startup?

Tried it again but didn't help. Is that little script interfering with the speedtouchConf script maybe? But couldn't I add those lines of commands you spoke of before in some startup script? I have yet to learn where though. Mikael Liste de diffusion modem ALCATEL SpeedTouch USB Pour se désinscrire : mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]
