I have no idea what that means, but I'll give DHCP a try if you know
of some good documentation that explains how to set it up. Can you
recommend some packages?
On the other hand, I might have made some progress by removing a DHCP
package I tried and changing /etc/network/interfaces back to the way
it was. At least now I can use Apache, FTP, and Dict again.
Now when I run 'pon dsl-provider' and plog I get:
Jan 17 19:54:08 lotek pppd[6273]: pppd 2.4.4 started by root, uid 0
Jan 17 19:54:08 lotek pppd[6273]: Using interface ppp0
Jan 17 19:54:08 lotek pppd[6273]: found interface eth0 for proxy arp
Jan 17 19:54:08 lotek pppd[6273]: local IP address 10.64.64.64
Jan 17 19:54:08 lotek pppd[6273]: remote IP address 10.112.112.112
If I paste 10.64.64.64 into the browser I get my system, but if
I paste 10.112.112.112 I get nothing.
In the syslog it says:
Jan 17 19:55:48 lotek pppoe[6312]: Timeout waiting for PADO packets
Jan 17 19:56:57 lotek pppd[6273]: Starting link
Jan 17 19:56:57 lotek pppd[6273]: Serial connection established.
Jan 17 19:56:57 lotek pppd[6273]: Connect: ppp0 <--> /dev/pts/3
Jan 17 19:57:28 lotek pppd[6273]: LCP: timeout sending Config-Requests
Jan 17 19:57:28 lotek pppd[6273]: Connection terminated.
Jan 17 19:57:32 lotek pppoe[6327]: Timeout waiting for PADO packets
I have read that it should be 'Connect: ppp0 <--> eth0', but I don't
know why it's not right.
