请教 Linux 的上网问题

[LuckYgoHappY]

我是Rogers Hi-speed 的用户，原来的Cable-Modem 安装在Windows-Xp上，现在想让它能在 Linux 机器上也工作，却不知该怎样做，特来此请教。 哪位高手若知道或有类似经验，烦请赐教，谢谢！

First, make sure the network device has been loaded by kernel successfully; then, put something like below into your the /etc/network/interfaces file:

----------------------------------------
auto eth0
iface eth0 inet dhcp
----------------------------------------

Then, reboot your machine to see what will happen. I am not an expert so ask google for more info, or start to learn linux. Heee...

一样啊，设成DHCP就行了阿

Thanks, the problem is solved. I need to add a strange number such as CPE0001... to the file "hosts".

How about DSL in Linux?
I'm now using Bell sympatico, newly installed Linux 9.0, but I don't know how to connect to internet?
Any suggest?
Thanks

RH 9.0是史上最烂一个RH的版本,换最新的Ubuntu吧

Ubuntu

好象他们还免费寄DVD。

 

[sunnyhym]

it is cdrom shusheng
nowadays the linux distro is ui friendly, they have something like tutor for that.
rogers is easier because it doesn't need pppoe, dsl needs this, I am not sure rh9 now usually is rppppoe.

 

[waisgan]

Are you joking or serious? what's rppppoe?
For windows, we usually need drivers from dsl modem manufaturer, and a package from ISP like sympatico, how about Linux, does it include everything?
But anyway, is there anybody has successful experience connecting to sympatico in Linux?
Thanks

upstairs:what driver do you use on windows?
if your dsl modem connect to your computer with ethernet cable, you don't need install any drivers on your machine, it is like a router. just need setup pppoe on your dsl modem. so it is same with rogers if u connect with ethernet cable to dsl modem.

Upstaires:
Thanks for comment. I am new to Linux, so some questions appear too newbie.
I have 2 DSL modems, one with ethernet port, one with USB port without ethernet. If it works as what you said, so how about the latter one(USB modem)? Will it work as well?
It's a Speedstream 4060 modem, pretty old products from Efficient,come with driver for windows,do I need to find a driver for Linux?
By the way, how to configure PPPoE in Linux, is it as easy as just provide UserID/Password, plus something like DHCP?
Thanks
