w00t, got my DSL going for Windows now ^^
Only one problem -- need to buy a NIC card so I can use it with Linux (I haven't found any drivers for the modem's USB junk yet, so I need an ethernet). w00t!

Same problem here with wireless junk.
I'm thinking of configuring an access point to connect to my network (normaly you use access points with routers :p ).
And then just hook it up to my ethernet gate to get it working with linux.

Yay! Ethernet card too! (and works with both WinBlows and Linux). Somehow I don't think I'll need the whole 1GBps transfer speed though 
. Life is good (and this is my spammish-nonsense thread 
)
Edit: Yes, the card works with Linux -- I booted up with Knoppix and it let me onto www.google.com, then for some reason, cut out like a cheap-ass mofo after I tried to google for a website.

In my kernel release (which is 2.6.11.12) there are no 1000 mbit/s drivers for any MSI NICs. Maybe they just don't show up, because I didn't compile the MSI drivers in, but that's unlikely. I guess, support for 1000 mbit/s MSI-NICs will be coded sometime. But I might also be totally wrong and the drivers are already there. =)
I'm x^10 + x^8 + x^5 + x^4 + x^3 + 1, so don't mess with me!

Linux + Internet = Good
by al_tyranny on Wed Oct 05, 2005 9:32 pm
w00t! SLAX to the rescue!! I tried using Slax, and now the internet works fine (rather slow though, maybe because it's "from-disc" on my computer -- I really must try this in the installed Linux partition later tonight).
w00t! I have Linux + Internet! Slackware domination is coming!
P.S. All you guys using Linux all these years probably know this feeling that "it finally works" ... for those who don't, go get some free software!

I had DSL for about a week, after getting really into online FPS it completely stopped working. Dunno why, but so did my puter. Now AOL(yes, I know but I have to wait another 9 month before canceling) has decide to give me free dial up untill they fix it.
I don't really get what your all saying in the above posts. I couldn't tell you what it is but I know I got my modem sent from AOL, please tell me it will work if I get Linux...
(after all that I so hope DSL is the same as 512 Broadband)

Congrats! I recently got DSL from Verizon.. and I'm really happy with it. I need to buy a NIC card for the other computer so it can use DSL with it & linux @_@. Evok3, you can get free dialup by signing up for the free trials over and over with a different credit card 
Hurray.
