Hi,
sorry for being a little off-topic, but I guess this list is the best way to
get a competent answer.
No problem this mailling list is for that.
I'm planning do put an ueagle-atm compatible USB ADSL modem into a Freecom
FSG-3 device (Linux 2.6 soon available, 5 USB-Ports, 266 MHz ARM CPU) and I
wonder if this is a good idea compared to using a ethernet ADSL modem (i.e.
bridge). Using an USB ADSL modem instead of an ethernet bridge, the FSG-3
device must additionally run the ueagle-atm driver and the br2684ctl daemon.
How much additional work does this mean for the CPU, i.e. is it a good idea
to put this load onto the ARM CPU?
The load will come from usb transfert and raw ATM parsing. For usb you
could tunne iso/bulk transfert with module parameters.
With you RX rate 2Mbps IIRC, your arm should have enough power.
The best thing to do is to try it.
You could search on the ML, IIRC somebody try it on a via C3 (or
something similar).

PS : thanks a lot's for the firmware test : now I know that
./bnm_netherlands/rtbldei.dsp is the lastest one and there no regression.
That a pain we doesn't have changelog for differents firmwares versions,
but maybe we'll have something for new eagle chipset.
