    What kind of ADSL router/modem is supplied with Esat's Business ADSL service and how Linux compatible is it?

    Ericsson hm230dp the DHCP fucntion is disabled so it is puerly a modem not Hub

    Its bridged PPPoA RFC1483LLC SNAP BRIDGED so basically your NIC does the IP and the VPI(0)/VCI(35) settings are hardcoded to memory on the modem.

    Modulation G-DMT

    Is it always VPI/VCI = 0/35 for ESAT Business?

    I thought that Esat used different settings depending on the exchange (for their bridged product, not the RADSL offering).

    Thanks. All I need now is for this Esat installation engineer to turn up and install it.

    I'd suggest you go to ftp.esat.net and start downloading a linux iso to check your speed

    127KB to ftp.esat.net. Ripe.net varied between 112K and 120K. A US site only returned 57KB. Still not too bad. Some problems with Windows but Linux seems to be rock solid. Need to start the main tests now.
