@vishalrao. Yes. I have seen that link. my posting was only to tell about the update version. I am already having problems with Windows XP, and too late to switch to Ubuntu or any other LINUX flavor!
 
Hi
I have a UT300R2U ADSL modem in our office . Earlier it was connected to WINDOWS XP PC and running with dynamic IP and working perfectly. Now we have taken STATIC IP under the BUSINESS-5000 plan and have to connect this modem to a REDHAT ENTERPRISE LINUX v4 SERVER which is going to server as our MAIL/WEBSERVER .

My problem is the 2 NICs in the system are recognized and activated, one onboard and one D-Link 538TX in LINUX. Onboard is eth0 with INTERNAL LAN IP and DLINK is eth1 and connected to the CAT-5 cable coming from the ADSL modem/router.

However, when I try the NEW DEVICE in the hardware , the router is not being detected. Also I am not able to get any connection to internet. Can anybody help me in telling the configs to be made exactly. I am a newbie to LINUX and so the command syntax would be greatly appreciated.

Also , I would like to know what is this " ping 4.2.2.2" command given in the other posts. my internal IP is 10.2.20.2 or is it the STATIC IP as given by BSNL?

if you are connecting thru the ethernet(lan) then you don't need to install any drivers.. just configure your network setting. which linux distro are you using?
 
but boss i got a problem with my lan connection in my modem it is not workingtats why i use USB and anything to solve it
 
is there any pppoe dialer for linux? :confused: plz tell me

Sure, you need to give the command "pppoeconf" as root or with sudo. Then follow the prompts.

First, your NIC that is connected to the modem/router must be on the same network as the modem's LAN. For example, if your modem's LAN IP is 192.168.1.1, then you much configure your NIC, connected to that modem, to have an ip of, say, 192.168.1.10, netmask of 255.255.255.0 and gateway of 192.168.1.1. Then you will be able to see the modem's configuration interface and you can continue from there to change/manage your modem settings.
 
is there any pppoe dialer for linux :wall: this is second time :(

Yes, it is pppoeconf. Use the following command:
$> sudo pppoeconf

to do the setup.

If the command is not found, search for the relevant package and install it using Synaptics package manager.
