DSL is not PPPOE. DSL and Cable use the DHCP protocol to hand out IP
addresses. As to using SAT, here's what you do:
1) run SAS from the desktop
2) type in root password, hit return
3) Click "network settings" click the Launch button
4) Click on your ethernet card, click Enabled at Boot, Choose DHCP from the
popup menu.
5) click OK and then exit SAS
When you get your DSL connection, as root, disable PPPOE, then type ifdown
to take down the ethernet interfaces, and then type ifup to bring it back up
again using DHCP.
Alternatively, reboot your system.
BTW: have you tried looking at the manual? That's what it's there for ;-)
