Not personally got that far yet John, but if you go here:

http://www.ipcop.org/1.2.0/en/install/html/initial-configuration.html#anchor
-usbadsl-setup

then it should give you all the information you need (I hope).

Have fun
Phil

Bt have just announced that my local exchange is to be upgraded to offer
broadband services. Does anybody have broadband ADSL set up using linux or
more especially, IPCOP? My current set up is IPCOP dials the internet via
56k modem and I hang my other machines off a hub using ethernet NICS. If I
get broadband, am I looking at using a WINDOWS machine to hook up to
broadband via the ADSL card and perhaps subnetting my internal network and
putting the ipcop firewall between the windows ADSL machine and the rest of
my lan?
