Hi there,
I'm running a Knoppix 3.3 HD install (Debian sid), kernel 2.6.6 on my laptop. I used ppoeconf to set up my ADSL connection. Using "pon dsl-provider" I'm seeing a connection, getting an IP address, but I can't ping past the router. The local network I'm seeing fine. This config works under XP.

The line "Cannot determine ethernet address for proxy ARP" seems a bit weird.

I have a Megahertz FE574B PCMCIA NIC and also have a static address. Any help much appreciated!!
