Last night on a Debian box with an iiNet _STATIC_ IP ADSL account.

Steps to 'temporarily' get it going:
-----------------------------------------------
1. Plug it in (Alcatel ADSL modem) to an ethernet card.
2. ifconfig ethx {ip they give you} netmask {netmask they give you}
3. route add default gw {gateway they give you}

Works perfectly.

1.5 Mbps downstream got me about 160 Kbytes/s
256 Kbps upstream gave out about 26 Kbytes/s

No Roaring Penguin/PPPoE, no authentication, nothing.

Ryan.
