Returning to uni next month and doing lots with linux and in unix environment. However, I cannot configure my BT voyager 105 adsl modem to work in Ubuntu with an aol account. I have browsed forums for support but just not getting anywhere. I have tried various things with the eciadsl drivers. would be greatful if any one can shed on light on this.

This is what i get with eciadsl-start in the terminal:
