Hi,

i have setup my new >> home server router everything box << and have some trouble with the network topolgy and bringing up the adsl connection. On my old machine i could easy start /etc/init.d/rp-pppoe to connect to adsl. but today there is no script like that.

here is my network:

AccessPoint <---------> Some WLAN Clients at the basement
|
|
|
Switch <-----> eth0 <------->Bridge (br0) <-------> AccessPoint (ath0 (madWifi)) <------> Some WLAN Clients
|
|
|
|
ADSL Modem <--------> Intenet


The problem is, when i setup as follow:

iface_eth0="adsl"
iface_ath0="null"
bridge_br0="ath0 eth0"

then I can not ping to the www. (the connection seems to be OK as ifconfig says)



when I setup es follow:

iface_eth0="null"
iface_ath0="null"
bridge_br0="ath0 eth0"

and then start adsl manualy with adsl-start then it works.




Isn't there a way to autmaticly connect to adsl on boot without writing my own start/stop script?
Can I set up br0 the same way as eth0 (lika iface_br0="adsl" or some thing else) to do this???


OK, thats it for now...
thank a lot.
