I'm been googling and searching a lot for a way to set up a 2WIRE modem/router from HOMEPORTAL, this modem has an Ethernet and an USB plugs, since I already have a box in the Ethernet plug I only have left the USB port to plug it, I'm using Mandriva Limited Edition and this modem appears in the control center in the hardware tab, but doesn't work.

I can't believe that really isn't any way to plug it via usb I have been searching for usb drivers, or any kind of help and always is the same, no usb support or use the Ethernet plug, how can we make all of us who have been looking for this Issue to get someone to help us? maybe writing drivers for this device since i think it's getting more popular everyday.

Hope anybody with the same issue join me to find a solution after all this search.

HAVE YOU TRIED THIS
