Are you connected through a router, or do you directly log on using PPPoE?

If you're using PPPoE (the logon thing), read this: http://faq.belg88.com/index.php?op=view&t=33

It's on our FAQ, for Christ's sake!

i am connected through pppoe.  and yes, i have read the faq.  it says it will not work w/ rpm based linux (i.e. mandrake) and you will need build a binary rpm.  and im pretty new 2 linux, so i have no idea what they are talking bout.

alright, i downloaded that file.  it wants to work but then it prompts me to insert my disk 1 into device [dev/hdb/].  i loaded it into my main cd drive but it doesnt recognize it and it also doesnt recognize it in the secondary drive either.  am i doing something wrong?
