Most of the info I found at http://speedtouch.sf.net, but in the ports there seems to be version of the pppoa program too (see below). My modem works very fine with the programs and installation instructions found at the speedtouch.sf.net site. They even have a FreeBSD version of the program and specific fbsd installation notes. /usr/ports>make search key=3D"alcatel" Port: pppoa-1.2b2,1 Path: /usr/ports/net/pppoa Info: Run PPP over Alcatel's USB Speedtouch device Maint: ports@FreeBSD.org Index: net B-deps: R-deps: Hope this can help you.
