You will need windows to use the html interface. elinks reports several javascript errors when I've tried. Use the non-windows setup, make sure you are set to pppoe or pppoa or dhcp ( this is dhcp for the outside connection) for your connection to the isp. Type in your username and password. The vpi and vsi numbers need to be set for your isp in the advanced configuration if they aren't already. Never used the adsl-setup so cannot tell you. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Jude DaShiell" <jdashiel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx> To: <speakup at braille.uwo.ca> Sent: Sunday, October 16, 2005 4:29 PM Subject: a new and different dsl modem > The old westell 2200 modem managed to get lost or stolen I can't be > certain.
