Topic: PCI ADSL MODEM

[Matt]

How do i get E-Smith to recognise a Dynalink PCI ADSL Modem as a modem and not as an ethernet card, seeing as though there are no listed drivers within E-smith to warrant setting the modem up as an ethernet card.  Or am i going to have to build a new pc specifically as an internet gateway?

not knowing the hardware you are referring to, i have a question. If the device behaves like an ethernet card, why bother trying to make your e-smith think it's a modem?
Assuming you have a modem that can appear as a ethernet card, you should have no problem as a server&gateway.

I don't know if this is the same pulsar card as the one from Traverse in Oz. I've implemented the driver for Traverse's configured for SME, using PPPoA mode.

If your ADSL is PPPoE, I have no experience of setting that up though, it's all PPPoA here (UK).
