Hi, I am dual booting FC5 with Windoze on a Toshiba Laptop(Tecra S2). I have a broadband connection from IQARA broadband.

Has anyone got IQARA running on linux? Could you help me out with some instructions on how to go about this?

I have tried the following so far :

In Network Connections, I created a new xDSL connection named Iqara which uses dialup for getting IP information. Besides this, there is also an Inactive Ethernet connection on eth0 (the Ethernet Card--Marvell-something-something, recognized correctly). The Inactive ethernet connection is set to start up and determine IP information using DHCP. This sometimes fails to bring up the eth0 interface with the following error: Determining ip information.... <then gives Failed>. Now, on trying the Iqara connection, it starts up properly. But the problem is that this happens only sporadically.... bringing up eth0 more often than not is reporting the following error: Determining ip information:.... Failed; no link present, Check cable? If this happens then Iqara also fails to start up. At the same time, on Windows, the connection works properly... odd, since I would have expected it to say something like "Network Cable unplugged".

RP-PPoE also doesnt seem to work, though I am not sure of all the settings.

Any help in setting it up is highly welcome...

Thanks a lot, Rakesh
