My problems (and possible stupidity) continue...

Can anyone hold my hand through the steps (another forum - BELOW)

Step1: How do I check this?
Step2: Got it and it's on the desktop for the moment - Uncompress it into which folder? - what does cd mean?
Step3: Is this refering to Konsole?
Step4: Konsole?
Step5: " "
Step6: " "
Step7: " "
Step8: " "
Step9: Will be ok from there.

Sorry to be a pain guys - I'm a complete newb to Linux, really wanna get this working, I've been wanting to trial Linux for ages. Hope some really helpful soul can guide me here. Thanks in anticipation....

Suse 10.1 should come with ueagle version 1.2, but this doesn't work with latest kernel properly.

Instructions:

Step 1: Make sure you have the following installed: "kernel-source" "make" "gcc" before continuing
Step 2: Get ueagle 1.3, uncompress it, cd into the folder
Step 3: Type "make" but NOT "make install"
Step 4: Type "cp ueagle-atm.ko usbatm.ko /lib/modules/`uname -r`/kernel/drivers/usb/atm/" replacing 'uname -r' with your kernel version
Step 5: Type "mkdir /lib/firmware/ueagle-atm"
Step 5: Get "ueagle-data-1.1.tar.gz", uncompress it, cd into the folder
Step 6: Type "cp -a * /lib/firmware/ueagle-atm/"

Step 7: Type "gedit /etc/ppp/peers/ueagle-atm"

Copy in the following:
user "user@adslcompany.com"
plugin pppoatm.so VPI.VCI
noipdefault
usepeerdns
defaultroute
persist
noauth

Change the "user@adslcompany.com" to your ADSL username
Change VPI.VCI to your broadband companies values (check here: http://faq.eagle-usb.org/wakka.php?wiki=ListConfigADSL)
For example Tiscali UK is 0.38

Step 8: Type "gedit /etc/ppp/chap-secrets", Replace anything in there with the following line:
"user@adslcompany.com" "*" "password"
This being your ADSL username and pass obviously

Step 9: Open up YaST -> Network Devices -> DSL
Step 10: Click "Add"
- leave PPP over ATM
- VPI/VIC should have the same value as you enetered for "plugin pppoatm.so VPI.VCI"
- Set Device Activation to 'At Boot Time'
- Tick User Controlled
- Click Next, click New, enter a Provider Name (not important) and your ADSL user and pass, untick 'Always ask for password'
- Click Next
- OK & exit YaST

Step 11: Now reboot, when you start up, your connection should already be on, try a web browser

Complete documentation to configure BSNL dataone broadband in SUSE 10.1

Using Adsl modem via ethernet, it doesn't work for usb.

Click on applications (on left hand side at bottom)

under system click yast (right at bottom).

Click network devices.

In nework devices click dsl and complete the formalities like username and password.

Finish the process(at the end it will ask u about configuring mail server, just say not to it)

and then go to Network services in same yast control centre window.

click dns and hostname.

Enter <Enter address provided by your ISP> in the space provided for Name server 1

Enter <Enter address provided by your ISP> in the space provided for Name server 2

Finish the process and you are done with the settings.

Now it may so happen that kinternet may not be installed, just check it up under applications-->internet-->Dial up-->

There must be two things kppp and kinternet.

kppp will be surely present.

kppp is of no use to us.

we need kinternet.

in case kinternet is not present, install it from the dvd like u must have installed other softwares in suse linux

after its installed, kinternet will come under
applications-->internet-->dial up-->kinternet

click kinternet

a small plug will come in task bar.

just single click that plug and thats it you will be connected to internet within seconds.

This tutorial is not really mine, It is originally designed for a particular ISP. I got it while searching and edited to fit the general ADSL configuration.
