no connection to internet with a T-Ethernet Modem

[Harry Kuhman]

Hi
I try to get an internet connection with my Live CD Knoppix 3.3, it finds the ethernet card but cannot find the PPPoE Accsess Contractor (which I guess is the modem Speedtouch 500), so have anyone an idea what I can do?
I am a newby with this live-cd, but I like the idea, especially to get away from windows sooner or later.

Thanks for any idea Ferdinand

I'm not going to wast time looking up your modem and trying to guess which options you have.

If it's USB then skip to another response. Or get a modem with an ethernet connection.

If it does not have a built-in router (I don't think that model does), then get yourself an inexpensive DSL/Cable router.
See here for info I've written on this already today.
