Great, but i'd like to add :

Great article and I wish it I woulda found it when I first got dsl, but there're some few things I needed to point out:

1. dynamic firmware loading was added around 2.6.8-9, so if you're using an older kernel it's about time to upgrade (2.6.12-rc1 is out, check your kernel version with uname -r).

3. you need CONFIG_HOTPLUG=y and CONFIG_FW_LOADER=y in the kernel (if you're building one on your own, to check if they are enabled or not in your current kernel type : zgrep -e 'CONFIG_HOTPLUG|CONFIG_FW_LOADER' /proc/config.gz )

4. "8.35" depends on the isp, it could be 0.35 in some cases, depends on the numbers your isp gave you.

peace

it should be, just make sure

you can check kernel log $dmesg or /var/log/messages to see if the modem is being detected by the kerel or no

copy and paste:

Here's how to create it:


cat > adsl.sh << EOF
#!/bin/bash

/sbin/modprobe pppoatm
/usr/sbin/pppd call adsl
EOF

chmod +x adsl.sh

No idea where to put it though.
