Right. That's new information. At least, it's new to me (maybe I wasn't paying 
attention). PPPoE is a little different but it's not impossible.

So did the firmware load? If it did you should get some output from this command

dmesg | grep 'ADSL line is up'

Could you post the output please?

If the firmware loads, to do PPPoE you'll need a copy of 
http://www.linux-usb.org/SpeedTouch/mandrake/br2684ctl

Make it executable and save it somewhere in roots $PATH

chmod +x br2684ctl
cp br2684ctl /usr/sbin

Put your username and password (to log in with your ISP) in 
/etc/ppp/chap-secrets and /etc/ppp/pap-secrets with a star between them, like 
this

'[EMAIL PROTECTED]' * 'password'

Create a file to configure ppp. Call it speedtch and save it as 
/etc/ppp/peers/speedtch

noipdefault
defaultroute
user '[EMAIL PROTECTED]'
noauth
updetach
usepeerdns
plugin rp-pppoe.so
nas0

Change the '[EMAIL PROTECTED]' to be the same as the '[EMAIL PROTECTED]' you 
put in /etc/ppp/chap-secrets.

Load some kernel modules

modprobe pppoatm
modprobe br2684

Now use the br2684ctl to create a bridging connection. 
Change the VP.VC in this line for your ISP's vpi/vci numbers (in Britain it 
would be 0.38)

/usr/sbin/br2684ctl -b -c 0 -a VP.VC

Wait a second or two then, to be honest, I'm not really sure what this line 
does, but it is needed for PPPoE

ifconfig nas0 192.168.0.1 netmask 255.255.255.0

And finally, if all that worked run pppd

pppd call speedtch

If you get an error along the way, don't ignore it. Post the error here. If one 
step fails, so will the rest.
Good luck, Andy
