Fine. That means your modem is configured in bridge mode.

another thing-i made a configuration with fc5 like this:-created a new dslconnection(there are ethernet connection,modem connection,isdn connection dsl connection etc.)configured the hard ware for that connection-eth0 and edited the static ip address like in
windows.after all the connection was made but with poor speed.the page loads after a very long time and then it loads quickly.the down load speed was about 15-20 kpbs.what went wrong?any security changes to be made?or is it ethernet connection to be made?aso tried with suse 10.1&mandriva 2006 but was not able to connect. i want to configure in suse 10.1.please give a step by step configuration for suse 10.1.thanks.

I am not familiar with Suse, but I think you need to use Yast to configure your Network Devices to setup your DSL connection. Configure you network card with a static IP address just as you described above. Then configure your DSL connection. This might be of help to do this:
