The ppp tutorial references network card device names, as in: Other models of network adapters may have different device names in FreeBSD. Check the FAQ for specifics about your network adapter. If you're not sure of the device name of your adapter, check the FreeBSD FAQ to determine the device name for the card you have and substitute that name (i.e.: 'de0', 'zp0', or similar) in the following steps. However, I am using a 3ComElink III. It is on the Hardware Configuration List, but the installation routine for Free BSD makes no reference to 3Com, and nowhere in the FAQ can I find device names for specific cards, just the few chipset choices found in the installation script.
