Hi,

Recently, I've installed the Mandrake 10.0 and unfortunately I'm experiencing a "heavy" internet connexion problem.

First, I've starded by configuring my internet connexion with the MCC wizard but I've got a message saying that my system does'nt seem to be connected to internet.

I use a ADSL connexion and I tried two different modems : the Alcatel "Speedtouch" (with the microcode properly installed !) and the Sagem F@ast 908. My internet connexion worked just fine with both of those modems, on the same machine under Mandrake 9.1, and both of the modems work fine under Win XP on the same machine.

The problem actuelly came when I launch the adsl-start script. There is the entiere copy of the script, launched in debug mode, so if somebody can help ... :

[root@computeone sbin]# adsl-start
*** Running in debug mode... please be patient...
speedtouch: interface inconnue: No such device
SIOCSIFMTU: No such device

*** Finished debugging run. Please review the file
*** '/tmp/pppoe-debug-4632/pppoe-debug.txt' and try to
*** figure out what is going on.
***
*** Unfortunately, we can NO LONGER accept debugging
*** output for analysis. Please do not send this to
*** Roaring Penguin; it is too time-consuming for
*** us to deal with all the analyses we have been sent.



[root@computeone sbin]# cat /tmp/pppoe-debug-4632/pppoe-debug.txt

[root@computeone sbin]# adsl-start
*** Running in debug mode... please be patient...
speedtouch: interface inconnue: No such device
SIOCSIFMTU: No such device

It would seem from this that ur drivers for the speedtouch are not installed properly
I would try the uninstall script from the directory where the driver is at and re-install them.
Then plug in ur adsl connection and type ifconf -a to see if the modem is recognised.

U must install the drivers correctly before installing the ppp0e stack

(Also sagem have updated their drivers form mandrake suse and redhat on the www.sagem.com site > products>broadband/adsl)
