The model of the refered modem is the grey Thomson Speedtouch USB ADSL Modem 330, which i haven't described previously.
I want it to work with the default debian sarge install. There's a package which provides the necessary module but then I have to download and then load the necessary firmware, which I did. The problem is that i can't seem to get a network interface to connect to it. I have a set of scripts i have to put in /etc/ppp/peers and then call the connection by issuing pon adsl or pppd call adsl. I heard some other interfaces have to be configured instead of ppp0, interfaces like nas0 or tap0. What's the difference between calling ppp0 or the mentioned interfaces ? I'm running around google to set the connection and I have a few tutorials to configure the connections in other linux distro's like fedora, SuSE or RedHat, but not debian, which happens to bem my favorite... Another thing: What's the difference between PPPoverATM and PPPoverETH ( pppoatm, pppoe) ? And what's the standard for Portugal, or both of them can be used ?
