Canada uses pppoe to connect it and can send me a copy of his
dsl-provider file ? I can't make it works and i really wants to ..
Thanks,

I am running Debian Sarge on Bell Sympatico High Speed connection in
Quebec. Works pretty nicely.
Have you tried running pppoeconf as root? It will:
1) IIRC, first detect the presence of a connection on your NIC cards
(provided the modem is connected and powered ON -- and you are not using
USB*).
2) Then ask you for user name and password plus some other questions
about some settings which you should accept.
3) After that, 'pon' and 'poff' commands should work.
If that doesn' work, report what happened and we can see what could be
the problem.

* I have never used USB modem on my machine so can't say for sure how to
do that.
