Hi all, Seems my ISP (CWHKT) is busy for her merging and I hope I will be given a connection in coming weeks. Meanwhile I am still looking for ways to use 3010 in my freebsd box. I find a 3010 driver for linux here: http://www.sfgoth.com/~mitch/linux/atm/lanai/ and instructions to setup PPPoATM in linux here (using the above driver): http://home4u.hongkong.com/_H4U/technology/internet/ultraline/pppoalinux1.html 1. Are there anybody working on porting the driver to freebsd? 2. If no, maybe I will have a try. However, where can I find information of porting a driver from linux to freebsd? 3. Also it seems that netgraph supports have to be added for PPPoATM. Where can I find more info on netgraph? (like API stuff) I hope I don't need to use linux finally. Thanks. Chris P.S. I haven't written any driver before.
