Hello I've been trying to connect via Speedtouch 330 Revison 4.0 on PLD Linux Distribution for a few whole days. All I've managed to do is flashing the the diode (as if firmware was loaded) =( It keeps on saying that it cannot increase MTU, even though I've specified probably in all the possible places the limits much lower, than 1500. I am using a PCI USB2.0 controller with VIA chipset, I've read somewhere that there may be some incompatibility issues with that, but I don't think that's the case. I've tried four different approaches to configuration: distro's auto-configurator, a rc-script included with distro, distro documentation (theese three seem to be quite old) and that from http://linux-usb.sourceforge.net/SpeedTouch/. Only the last one managed to communicate with modem (afterwards I modified two of the others so they can do so, too), but I still can't connect properly. This is what syslog says:

There seems to be a problem with grsec, which is integrated with distro's kernel... However, the line keeps on synchronising and appears to be ready.

I believe 0.35 is correct, but I've read that in some places this should be given decimal and in others octal =/ The first two lines do not appear in configs from distro (designed for my provider, but obsolete) I've suspected modem damage, so I checked it on win98se and, after driver update, it worked there... Being a linux newbie I do not know what more I should try... Maybe user space? I've tried it alredy, but AFAIR it didn't even manage to load the firmware... Please help...
