Works fine here (2.2mb/sec), connected via ethernet to the ADSL "modem".
BUT.. that ease will change soon. My ISP is shifting to PPP-over-Ethernet rather than continuing with the current "bridged" setup. Other ISPs continent-wide are likely to do the same, in the name of "equal access".
Linux currently has no *mature* open-source PPPoE client, but there are some jury-rigged arrangements that work, sort of, at present. I'll likely be installed one Real Soon Now.. -- Mark Lord Real-Time Remedies Inc. mlord@pobox.com
