Introduction
This document explains how to set up a DSL broadband connection for people living in the UK using a Thomson Speedtouch 330 USB modem or other similar modems supported by the speedtch
driver.
Instructions
- With modern kernels (>= 2.6.10) you do not need anything other than the
ppp
andlibatm1
packages. Thespeedtouch
package is not needed. - Download the modem firmware from the Alcatel web site (site down - mirror to zip) and unpack it with the firmware extractor. If this looks complex, you can just download and install an unofficial firmware package (e.g.:
dpkg -i speedtouch-firmware_0.3012k.deb
). - After installing the firmware you may unplug and replug the modem to load it.
- Copy the /usr/share/doc/ppp/examples/peers-pppoa file to e.g. /etc/ppp/peers/adsl. The following command will preform this action:
sudo cp /usr/share/doc/ppp/examples/peers-pppoa /etc/ppp/peers/adsl
- Edit with gksudo gedit /etc/ppp/peers/adsl to include the username given to you by your ISP and the VP and VC identifiers 0.38 (they may differ for other ISPs).
- Edit the
pap-secrets
and/orchap-secrets
files in/etc/ppp/
and update them with the username and password provided by your ISP by adding to each a line in the format"USERNAME" "*" "PASSWORD"
. - After the boot, you will be able to start the connection with the usual commands (e.g.
pon adsl
). - (FIXME: document how to create an udev script to automatically start the connection after the modem has been initialised.)
