Bell Sympatico Speed Stream modem: won't talk to Ethernet card

[Grant Cullen]

I am banging my head against sympatico as well, but one thing I did get from
them is the modem has an http interface.  Its address is 192.168.2.1.  When
you connect a windows box directly to it and use their software it sets the
computer to 192.168.2.2.

Usually they want you to connect to the modem for debugging purposes, this
should do it.

Subject: [TLUG]: Bell Sympatico Speed Stream modem: won't talk to
Ethernet card


Hi,All!

Is any body there get success with a Sympatico Speed
Stream modem made by Effecient Networks company?

I saw the Ethernet card kicks the modem 3 times. The
modem won't response to it. I checked the Ethernet
card by ifconfig, it has sent out 3 pockets but
received nothing.

When I run DEBUG=1 adsl-start, in the bottom of the
report, I can see only 3 PADI pockets are sent out
from the Ethernet card. I used different cards and
different computers. The same thing. I called
Sympatico, they are saying my modem is perfect working
and they cannot help with Linux. I am using rp-pppoe
3.5. Cannot find anything newer than this.

Thanks a lot!

Frank Peng.
