Hi, I'm connecting using ADSL and a Alcatel Speedtouch USB modem and it works brilliantly although it was a pain getting it set up. There is a GPL driver for it and Alcatel have released a binary management application which you have to download from their website. For more info - http://linux-usb.sourceforge.net/SpeedTouch/ 2.4.15 kernel includes pppoatm so you don't need to patch the kernel anymore. I had a bit of trouble getting hotpluging working with Debian (worked with Redhat) but got it working eventually so if you need anymore info just say. Nick
