Hi,

I finished gentoo installation recently and would want to get my internet
connection to work with it, otherwise I'll have to keep using windows more often :wink:.
First of I own a Topcom Webr@cer 851 PSTN USB modem directly connected to my pc, no hub, router or anything. So I searched the web and found that I should get him to work with the amedyn driver for the zyxel modem and installed and compiled that. Now when I run that amedyn script: amstart.sh, I get the following:
Code:
jida etc # amstart.sh
>>> Inits Zyxel 630-11 & Asus AAM6000UG <<<

>>> Removing amedyn driver...

>>> Loading firmware...

Looked all promising till it reached the end :(

Hope you can help me out.

Made a stupid mistake in the adsl setup, chose eth0 instead of nas0 :roll:, but as that problem is solved and I get connected, I am still not able to browse. Is there some kind of config file I need to adopt before I am able to browse or able to update portage:
Code:
jida root # ifconfig
eth0      Link encap:Ethernet  HWaddr 00:40:F4:37:77:F9
          UP BROADCAST RUNNING MULTICAST  MTU:1500  Metric:1

          TX packets:3 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0
          collisions:0 txqueuelen:1000
          RX bytes:243 (243.0 b)  TX bytes:180 (180.0 b)
          Interrupt:5

lo        Link encap:Local Loopback
          inet addr:127.0.0.1  Mask:255.0.0.0
          UP LOOPBACK RUNNING  MTU:16436  Metric:1
          RX packets:358 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0
          TX packets:358 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0
          collisions:0 txqueuelen:0

          collisions:0 txqueuelen:1000
          RX bytes:3914 (3.8 Kb)  TX bytes:4103 (4.0 Kb)

ppp0      Link encap:Point-to-Point Protocol
          inet addr:212.239.133.90  P-t-P:212.239.132.1  Mask:255.255.255.255
          UP POINTOPOINT RUNNING NOARP MULTICAST  MTU:1492  Metric:1
          RX packets:39 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0
          TX packets:39 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0
          collisions:0 txqueuelen:3
          RX bytes:2531 (2.4 Kb)  TX bytes:2006 (1.9 Kb)

I'd probably check that pppd put some IP addresses for your ISP's dns servers in /etc/resolv.conf.

If they're there, also check that your default route is pointing to your ISP's gateway.

Code:

disoft-dc darktama # route -n
Kernel IP routing table
Destination     Gateway         Genmask         Flags Metric Ref    Use Iface
203.220.79.11   0.0.0.0         255.255.255.255 UH    0      0        0 ppp0
127.0.0.0       127.0.0.1       255.0.0.0       UG    0      0        0 lo
0.0.0.0         203.220.79.11   0.0.0.0         UG    0      0        0 ppp0


If the default route (the 0.0.0.0 one) is not pointing to your gateway, add it with
route add default gw <gateway_address>

*edit* bold didn't work in code tags.. or i screwed something up..
