By comparison, > the Linux driver is crap, and moreover is written as crap. well, but: =2D It needs atm, so can't work with GENERIC =2D Its 1.5 version doesn't support FreeBSD 4 =2D From 2.0/1.4 it's more and more eagle chipset specific. I think that another alternative, using sppp/netgraph can't hurt. Also, most of this work can be used with alcatel and other brands chipsets. I also use the 1.5 driver on RELENG_5_3 in pppoa with very good results. =2D- josemi
