sounds simple enough? I have just got my speedTouch 330 working in Mandriva 2006 after 3 days. it is on line when I boot-up. Q how do I disconect and reconect?. the right click menu from the connection icon has a disconnect but it doesn't work. I have been into control center and tried from there with "reconfigure a network interface" with no joy. up until now I have only used SuSE, and it was simple to do there. thanks Adrian

After reading the install information for the drivers, it appears the driver, and connection are started with a script called start-adsl located in /usr/bin. Have a look there to see if there is a script like stop-adsl.

Well, ot appears there is more than one approach to installing. Here is the link I found. http://www.linuxquestions.org/questi...0&goto=newpost

Not at all sure this helps.

Had a look at the FAQ's This is what they have posted for disconnecting.
