Introduction

This document explains how to set up a DSL broadband connection for people living in the UK using a Thomson Speedtouch 330 USB modem or other similar modems supported by the speedtch driver.

Instructions

• With modern kernels (>= 2.6.10) you do not need anything other than the ppp and libatm1 packages. The speedtouch package is not needed.
• Download the modem firmware from the Alcatel web site (site down - mirror to zip) and unpack it with the firmware extractor. If this looks complex, you can just download and install an unofficial firmware package (e.g.: dpkg -i speedtouch-firmware_0.3012k.deb).
• After installing the firmware you may unplug and replug the modem to load it.
• Copy the /usr/share/doc/ppp/examples/peers-pppoa file to e.g. /etc/ppp/peers/adsl. The following command will preform this action:

sudo cp /usr/share/doc/ppp/examples/peers-pppoa /etc/ppp/peers/adsl

• Edit with gksudo gedit /etc/ppp/peers/adsl to include the username given to you by your ISP and the VP and VC identifiers 0.38 (they may differ for other ISPs).
• Edit the pap-secrets and/or chap-secrets files in /etc/ppp/ and update them with the username and password provided by your ISP by adding to each a line in the format "USERNAME" "*" "PASSWORD".
• After the boot, you will be able to start the connection with the usual commands (e.g. pon adsl).
• (FIXME: document how to create an udev script to automatically start the connection after the modem has been initialised.)
