I just gone thru ur earlier posts on the topic"Dataone on Linux", it was written that i need to
edit this file
/etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth0 and put this there.
DEVICE=eth0
BOOTPROTO= none
IPADDR=192.168.1.20
ONBOOT=yes
NETMASK=255.255.255.0
and restart the network..
Does this work?
PS: my earlier query can be found below.

Hi all,
I am facing a problem in connecting to INTERNET in LINUX mode (FEDORA CORE 3).
I am having
Huawei SmartAX MT882
ADSL router from BSNL. It is working fine under
WINDOWS XP.
In Linux, I ran adsl-setup and entered the neccessery info. After that I ran (as instructed) ifup ppp0 and after a minute or so got an error saying:
adsl_start: line 217: 1534 Terminated $CONNECT "$@" >/dev/null 2>^1
Then, I ran adsl-connect, it is giving the following error:
pppo /dev/pts/3
.........................................
LCP: timeout sending Config-Requests
pppo: Timeout waiting for PADO packets
.......................................
......................................
what is the problem? Eagerly waiting for ur response.
Thanx in advance.
regards

Well I finally got it working..I had to change the BOOTPROTO from dhcp to none.I still dont know how the dhcp crept in there.
And I had to do adsl-stop because that kept starting the pppd which caused wierd PADO packet timeouts.
I still wondering why many tutorials want to do the adsl-setup..I think what I am using is the modem's internal dialer which doesnt require RP-pppoe package anyway.
And thats a lot simpler.
Didnt have to disable firewalls neither.
finally,works!
Thanks
