Hi,
Can anyone tell me if SuSE 7.1 should work with ADSL from BT in Britain?
If you have or get the Business1000 package or above, the ADSL modem comes with an Ethernet connection, which is no problem to use with any OS. If you have or get the Home500 or Business500 you get an Alcatel USB ADSL modem. Alcatel have just released some Linux drivers for the modems (you need a kernel that supports USB), you can get them from ... http://www.alcatel.com/consumer/dsl/speedmgmt.tar.gz http://www.alcatel.com/consumer/dsl/SpeedTouch.tar.gz ...but ignore most of the instructions from them and get it from here... http://www.linuxdude.co.uk/docs/Alcatel-Speedtouch-USB-mini-HOWTO/speedtouch usb.html or http://www.nothing-on.tv/alcatel.html So far I have been unsuccessful in getting this working (mainly USB problems), but others have done it. Hopefully somebody will produce some nice RPMs soon! Cheers Phil
