Hello, guys. I signed a contract with NTT (Flet's optical) recently. The
provider is OCN (kind of a directly affiliated subsidiary of NTT).
On 5 Febyurary, The construction or installing the optical communication
finished and I got the modem which was provided by the provider so what I
need to do now is to make an internet connection with my X60s or the
Thinkpenguin router (TPE-1200).
The router seems to be still broken, it makes a connection to the laptop but
Abrowser and Liferea do not open the addresses http(s)://192.168.10.1 nor
192.168.3.1 (Sometimes it does and I can log in to Luci, but now no). I have
an old Buffalo router. But Trisquel 8 showed a notice and I could not make an
internet connection with the router when I tried to connect the LAN cable
which comes from the Buffalo router to the laptop.
I have an instruction from OCN. It seems that it is for Windows, and there is
a called "easy setting up" file and they recommend to download the file from
some place (http://flets-east.jp/soft/setup). Somehow Abrowser and Midori
refused to connect the website even if I added "s" between p and :.
I found a page of the website of Flet's that explains how to make an internet
connection with a Linux machine.
http://flets-east.jp/soft/setup/
It seems that it is written for mainly Cent OS. The page explains what I need
to do first is to download a file that they call it free software from a link
which is on the page.

But I got 404 error. I called NTT. She said I can make an internet connection
for sure with a linux machine but she does not know how to do it and what she
can do is to ask for pay support service but she says even if I payed for the
service, there is a possibility that they could not solve the problem nor
tell me how to make an internet connection with a Linux machine and today is
Sunday so anyway technical support day off so I am going to call them again
tomorrow, though.
I mean, is there an application that sets an internet connection like their
RP-PPPoE (rollingpenguin-PPPoE)? I checked Trisquel repository but maybe
there was no that software.
And it seems that it is better to set the internet connection on the
Thinkpenguin router than the X60s directly, so I would appreciate it very
much if I could log in to Luci, though. I'm afraid but it really irritates
me. Is there cleverer way.
Anyway as the worst case, I have a X200 installed Windows 7 so I could
download the easy setting up file easily with the Buffalo router. But it
seems that the router has no password, I mean maybe anyone can access its
wifi so I mind it a little bit. But even if I could make an internet
connection with Windows, do I have to do the setting on Trisquel or the
router later when I use the X60s?? I tried to make a connection on Trisquel
while reading the instruction but I could not find a column where seems that
I have to enter the password and ID or something. I randomly entered those
information into some columns but it did not work. And there seems still no
instruction of it on the documentation of Trisquel.
Anyway what I beg a favor of you is, is there software that does kind of the
easy setting up? I do not mind paying a few dollars. And is not it kind of a
problem that they use http instead of https? Is there some reason? Thanks for
your support in advance.
