There is a need for a Linux driver for the Intel(R) PRO/DSL modem.  This PCI
card is the interface which USWEST provides its DSL lite customers now.  It
uses PPP with DSL.  It works great with Windoze 98.  I personally get 640
kbps down and 270 up regularly.  There will be thousands of these devices
distributed in the western states as USWEST replaces the Cisco router and
ethernet setup with this new card.  Anyone got any ideas?  I really want to
use this with Linux.  I hope one of you Linux gurus will write a driver for
it.

Best regards,
Stan Finley

Well,  I dont know if someone will write a drive for it, but Im sure that
you will still be
able to use the NIC and router. I dont know why I would want to go to a card
anyway,
that would just add problems(Firewall Issue). I would much rather have the
firewall than
a DSL card.
