high speed DSL connectivity

[Ralph Doncaster]

No discounts, but I can do something for the group.

I have a bunch of Efficient Networks Speedstream 4060 USB ADSL modems
(surplus from the AOL/SBC ADSL campaign that flopped).  They don't
officially have Linux support, but I'm pretty sure they can be setup to
work with Linux.  Already my techs have been able to get the TurboComm
EA-100 (Globespan chipset) USB modem to work by using a USB sniffer under
Windows to capture the firmware downloaded to the modem.  The 4060's use
an Alcatel chipset.  The Alcatel Speedtouch USB works with linux
(http://www.linux-usb.org/SpeedTouch/) , so getting the 4060 to work
should not be an insurmountable task.

I'm willing to send a half dozen of these modems to someone in the group
willing to coordinate a project to get them working under Linux.  Project
participants would get to keep the modem.  If there are more than 6 TLUG
members interested, I'd want the modems to go to IStop.com customers
first.
