Yes, this should be wrong This should be enought using the speedtouch as an atm interface modprobe br2684 modprobe pppoe pppoe module depend on ppp_generic (look in modules.dep), so ppp_generic will automaticly be loaded during modprobe pppoe In Germany, pppoe has to be used because that was the choice of Deutche Telekom at the beginning.
