You can, but since you have two ADSL lines, you'll need two ADSL devices of some kind, whether it's a pair of 5861s, or a 5861 and an ADSL port adapter (external modem, PCI card, whatever) that Linux supports. The simplest solution will be to have the same setup for both lines. Either use two 5861s, or get two ADSL adapters that Linux can talk to. > So far I've set up ppp0:0 which I've assigned one of the static ip addresses > supplied to us by our ISP but when I try and route through it i.e. ip route > add default dev ppp0:0 table T1 then it returns the error no such device, > which it's quite right there isn't.

If you want to remove the 5861 from the picture entirely, you'll need to replace it with some sort of ADSL adapter. You can't just plug a DSL line into an ethernet card. > I hope I'd made myself clear, it's hard trying to explain something when > your not to sure exactly what your talking about.

It would help if you could draw a diagram of your network so we could get a better idea of what yo're trying to do. -James _______________________________________________ LARTC mailing list / LARTC@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://mailman.ds9a.nl/mailman/listinfo/lartc HOWTO: http://lartc.org/
