DSL over network

[StarBound]

How do I setup a dialup dsl? I have wimax and dont know how to config my linux for it.

I need a PPPoE thing.

1. Which Linux Distro ?
2a. Is your ADSL set to Bridged mode ?
2b. Can you modify this on the router to be Bridged ?

Using ubuntu 64 from the pcf dvd.

I managed to setup my wired connection. I use wimax so dont know how to explain the router part. Its not a router that you place details onto it. How you use it in windows xp is you create a connection thats a dial up broadband similar to a dial up modem without a modem driver.

sudo pppoeconf in terminal should put you in the right direction ?

Been searching and got this:

http://www.ubuntux.org/how-to-install-b ... t-rp-pppoe

Prerequisites: add universe and multiverse repositories.

Open a terminal window and type in:
sudo apt-get install build-essential
wget -c http://frankandjacq.com/ubuntuguide/rp-pppoe-3.6.tar.gz
sudo tar zxvf rp-pppoe-3.6.tar.gz -C /opt/
sudo chown -R root:root /opt/rp-pppoe-3.6/
sudo gedit /usr/share/applications/RP-PPPoE.desktop

Insert the following lines into the new file

[Desktop Entry]
Name=RP-PPPoE
Comment=RP-PPPoE
Exec=gksudo /opt/rp-pppoe-3.6/go-gui
Icon=
Terminal=false
Type=Application
Categories=Application;Network;

After that you can find RP-PPPoE in the Gnome menu under Applications -> Internet.

The last time I used linux was early 2003. Things have changed since then. It got easier to use but I lost my knowledge of DOS to windows automation

sudo pppoeconf in terminal should put you in the right direction ?

Terminal would be command prompt in windows terms?

Pretty much yea - should be under system tools - there might even be a link on your 'start menu' of sorts
