Yes, the outdated scripts used PPP but when connecting via a router
one uses L2TP. The ISP supports both.


If the ISP uses PPPoE that is very well supported. You can setup the
connection if YaST.


Really, in Yast?!? I will have to look into that: I have two people
who want me to install Kubuntu for them, but I do not want to play
with the scripts and they don't want to buy routers (I don't blame
them). I might try installing OpenSuse for them instead.



Yes! Under Yast > Network Devices > DSL

Just click "Add"

It's that simple. It will work on any Ethernet modem set to bridge mode.
