That is because your ISP is incompetent, and did not understand adsl at

Ah see, this is for sure the reason I had 2-3 outages for 20

Hold it right here. Why are you using PPP? Most DSL connections
have a router in your house that provides your network connection
as a normal uplink, on eth0. Do you actually have the ADSL card in
your PC, rather than as part of an external box?

Not necessarily eth0. Mine happens to be on eth2. The box (router in my
case) does not know what ethX I am using, it just wants to talk to the
proper port on 192.168.0.*.

If it's usb then it'll need PPPoE or PPPoATM.

I run Verizon FiOS, not aDSL, but as far as I know, the user sees the same
thing as they do with Verizon DSL, other than being a lot faster
(15Megabit/second download speed). In particular, I believe Verizon uses
pppoe on their aDSL customers as well. I do not know if their aDSL customers
get a router or not.

I've used ADSL and cable modems. In both cases, the company provided an
external box that provided a CAT5, 10baseT, plain old ethernet network
connection for my computer or my household router. No PPPoE was involved.

They provide a box on the side of the house that provides 4 voice lines, one
CAT5e connector, and a coax connector for cable tv. The in put is a single
strand of (Corning) glass fibre, single mode.

That CAT5e is 100BaseT, and does talk pppoe (which I find strange), but it
does not matter because they also supply a D-Link DI-624 router (actually a
VDI-624 router, which is the same, but slightly different firmware that
permits Verizon to test the link all the way to the router). That router
receives the pppoe from the box on the side of the house and converts it
straight into plain old ethernet on 4 hard wired sockets and a wireless LAN
(that I turned off because I do not need it). The box is free and my main
computer talks to the router as though it were on my LAN. The router's IP
address on my LAN is 192,168.0.1. I also have 192.168.1.* and 192.168.2.* on
my LAN, but that need not concern us here.

The Verizon-supplied router is "free" so I really do not care what they use
between its WAN connector and the house-side box.

There are companies that use PPPoE for their ADSL connections, and probably

setups. It may be desirable: it's a serious pain in the ass to set up
webservers or FTP servers that run behind PPPoE links, and it's a reasonable
way to help prevent your users from running such services.

True. Verizon prohibits my running servers on my connection, but the only
one I have any interest in running is sendmail, and my need to run that has
gone down to the point that I cannot justify getting an IP address from them
and permission to run a server on there ($100/month extra).

Completely irrelevant, you can run whatever you like behind your

Routable IP. See, that's where playing games like PPPoE lets you inflict all
sorts of filtering on the clients.

No, that is the decision to use dhcp and NAT. That can be done no matter
what method you connect them up with.

Many of the cheapest adsl modems are usb modems. Ie, they have no ethernet
port on the card, just an output to the phoneline and a usb attachment to
the computer. They are much more finniky and may well require a pppoe on
the computer itself. If possible one should always buy an ethernet enabled
modem. Far far less problems. Most of the modems act as routers as well,
and will handle the negotiation with the far end ( pppoe, pppoatm,
bridged,...) .

pppoe was an abortion foisted on the world by a commercial company who
decided to write its own rules without looking at was already standardised
(eg pppoatm), as I understand it. And ISPs accepted the bill of goods.

No, it is irrelevant. You can just as easily go over a ppp link as over any
other. The primary question is whether the IP number is assigned from the
private pool or is a public IP, again as I understand it.

I'd start with 'man adsl-setup' which sounds most reasonable to
me.

You need to upgrade to FC 5 sooner or later anyway, iirc FC2
isn't supported anymore, though it shouldn't matter to get your
box connected for a first test through adsl.

The same procedure applies to almost any problem on your box:

- Check which package files belong to.
- Gather which documentation comes with the package.
- Read the fine manual(s) (RTFM), try to follow the outlined
steps.

If it doesn't work as expected, reread docs and try again. Still
no luck? Try searching the Internet, especially the usenet
archives (groups.google.com) might have the answer. If you still
encounter problems, ask in the most related ng, include full info
what you are running and what you have already tried. Not your
impressions what is happening, but real data via cut&paste.

Good luck

BTW
We have outlined this and other useful tips in our frequently
posted new reader FAQ:

"A new reader? Welcome to comp.os.linux.setup, read this first if
you're new here (FAQ)"

Usually just a matter of scrolling down in this newsgroup, which

I use rp-pppoe, which uses ppp as part of it. My DSL modem is just a
DSL modem. I don't use FC2 any more, but I've used the same rp-pppoe
config since about RH7.3 (maybe it was RH9).

The correct way to start pppoe is "/etc/init.d/adsl start" or your
favorite variation. Other than that, make sure /etc/ppp/pppoe.conf,
pap-secrets, and chap-secrets has all the right stuff in it.

Part of the problem might be that you're running FC2, an older version, and
one that - given some of the other posts to this NG - might not be
supported well if at all.

Granted, I'm not an expert on the matter, but I think it might be a good
idea to upgrade to a more recent version. The more recent version might
support your internet setup 'out of the box' and if not would probably be
easier to configure/modify for that. You're likely to get better
hardware/software support both from redhat and from the community in
