If its Ethernet its standard and should work fine. -Drew -----Original Message----- From: Aaron [mailto:click46@webpimps.net] Sent: Thursday, October 04, 2001 2:49 PM To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Cc: freebsd-isp@freebsd.org Subject: Sprint ION on FreeBSD? I'm preparing to get an internet connection back and I'm fed up with Verizon DSL, and with Covad on the rocks, I dont see any point in buying into ANY DSL line. [Please dont try and sway me...I dont want DSL or CABLE] Luckily, I'm in a Sprint ION area; with a small business plan I'm allowed to host servers! My only reservation is...will it work with FreeBSD! I've confirmed that ION does not rely on PPPoE [which isnt a big deal, since it can be worked around, but still..its a hassle] but it DOES rely on this "C90 Gateway". Has anyone had experience with Sprint ION on BSD OS's?
