Summary: ALCATEL SpeedTouch USB ADSL modem user-space driver
ALCATEL SpeedTouch USB ADSL modem user-space driver. This package contains
nearly all the necessary software to use your SpeedTouch USB modem under Linux.
It currently supports only PPPoA encapsulation.

You will need to download the closed source driver from Alcatel.
It is located at: http://www.alcatel.com/consumer/dsl/supuser.htm
Read the license, fill out the form, download the part 'Binary', extract with
tar xfzv <filename>, but DO NOT INSTALL. Copy the microcode (mgmt.o) to
/usr/lib/speedtouch you may delete the other files as you do not need them.

It is also important that you change the default configuration files,
the ones provided will not work without editing them. You need to edit
/etc/ppp/peers/adsl and /etc/ppp/chap-secrets

You'll have to add the following two lines to your /etc/modules.conf:
alias char-major-108 ppp_synctty
alias tty-ldisc-13 n_hdlc

If you don't automatically get a DNS address from your provider,
you need to enter them into /etc/resolv.conf

To open the connection, type (as root):
/usr/sbin/stusb start
