I recently obtained a PCI ADSl modem card, Pulsar ADSL from Traverse Technologies http://www.traverse.com.au They have some test FreeBSD drivers http://adsl4linux.no-ip.org/pulsar.html that implement a bridge mode ADSL connection using netgraph modules: Id Refs Address Size Name 1 8 0xc0400000 65ab28 kernel 2 1 0xc0a5b000 7794 ng_atm.ko 3 4 0xc0a63000 14abc netgraph.ko 4 1 0xc0a78000 386c ng_eiface.ko 5 2 0xc0a7c000 3030 atm_aal.ko 6 1 0xc0a80000 440dc if_pls.ko 7 1 0xc0ac5000 2d50 ng_atmllc.ko This all seems to work fine, the modules load up and I get an ADSL sync light on the ADSL PCI card. However I need to run PPPoE or PPPoA to connect to my ISP, I tried user ppp and mpd but the both complained that the interface was not ethernet. Is it possible to use some like ng_ppp and mpd to hook to this card so I can establish a PPPoA session? If so can anyone suggest an mpd config? - Ernie.
