Date: Wed, 25 Jun 1997 17:12:06 +0200 Encoding: 28 TEXT Sender: owner-questions@FreeBSD.org X-Loop: FreeBSD.org Precedence: bulk Hello all, For letting a FreeBSD router box talk PPP with my provider's Cisco (through HDSL modems) I need a synchronous adapter. I'm thinking of buying the ET/5025 1 port, 8 bit, ISA card (V.35), but I want to make sure that I order everything I need. Is there any additional software that I should get (purchase from Emerging Technologies?) to make PPP work, or will I be fine with just the card (and if I'm fine with just the card, does that mean that the card comes with the software I need, that suppport is included in FreeBSD already, or that I should get it elsewhere?) Someone who has been there before please reply to my mail address (bit@dds.nl) since I'm not on the list. regards, -- Bart Smit Phone: +31 71 5617670 System Administrator Fax: +31 71 5617484 e-mail: barts@gecap.nl --------------------------------------------------------- Bowne Global Solutions (GECAP Netherlands BV) Papelaan 85 2252 EG VOORSCHOTEN The Netherlands ---------------------------------------------------------
