[Gllug] speedtouch dsl on p166mmx

[Ian Norton]

yes, its the stingray, im only using the userspace one now, the kernel one did
'work' but was hassle filled and needed lots of patching etc, however it does
work, (it makes linux thing the modem is a atm device)

the userspace one is quite a good solution as aside from the actual driver
nothing wierd needs to be done to the system, i have since found however that
the usb on my satellite pro 460cdx is buggy somehow and doesnt talk to the
modem correctly (or usb mass storage for that matter) but my nice satellite
4090cds (http://purge.bash.sh/~bredroll/satsite) works fine with it however i
dont fancy using my best laptop as a router :-P

i simply want to use my spare p166 laptop as a wifi and dsl router, wifi works
nicely on it so far, and i dont want to have to keep using windoze connection
sharing from the 2k box here :-/

who else uses a speedtouch 500 here then? :-)
