Everest Residential Service

[Seth Dimbert]

I have the DSL Modem that SBC gave me... it's mine to keep now that I've
cancelled. I was going to sell it on eBay, but if someone here is
interested, let me know offlist. They go on eBay for $40 - $50.

- | I have a D-Link Wireless router plugged into my SBC DSL
- | (external,speedstream)modem and service 4 'puters.. 192.168 etc.. All
- | configured by your browser so the operating system on your 'puter is
- | irrelevant, has built in PPPOE... If you have an internal DSL
- | modem you're
- | screwed if you want to run Linux on that machine. I had the
- | internal modem
- | that SBC supplied, ask for an external. Even in my old BBS days (I kinda
- | miss those days..LOL! 12mhz XT, 32meg RLL drive, Amber Mono
- | monitor, Supra
- | 24baud modem... 3 mail networks and, Remote Access, and for the
- | life of me
- | can't remember the mail front end I used..) I ONLY used
- | external... Ended up
- | buying an external from the SBC online store.

- | I have SBC DSL in Raytown, MO.  SBC was having server problems when I
- | finally got the modem so I couldn't activate it for 2 days.  Other than
- | that, no problems.  It is a 2Wire external DSL
- | modem/firewall/router.  I'm
- | not quite sure how many PCs you can plug in at once (I only have 4).  Of
- | course it assigns IP addresses and even lets you select the
- | range (10. 172.
- | or 192.)  I does have a provision to bypass all that stuff and just be a
- | modem to one PC.  I haven't tried that yet.  One big problem I
- | can see is it
- | seems to be very comfortable with Micro$oft and doesn't know
- | anything about
- | Linux.

- | I'm sure I'll be using my Linksys router to share the connection, if
- | possible.  Those DSL modems are internal arent they...dang.  It would be
- | ideal if the DSL modem was external with a ethernet connect going to my
- | router.  Hmm...I'll have to look into that.  But yeah...I'll
- | totally need
- | some help.  I've never looked at pppoe before.  Thanks for the
- | offer, I'm
- | sure I'll take you up on that.
