I have heard of xDSL connecting to ETHERNET cards, this is the first one I
heard connecting to an ATM card.

More information is needed. Does it need to use the Alcatel ATM card (I
am not aware of any FreeBSD driver for card). What ATM protocol does the
ASDL card speak (Classic IP over ATM, LANE 1.0, LANE 2.0, or maybe native
ATM and then what AAL type, what Quality of Service (VBR, ABR, UBR, CBR))?
