As for Qingdao China NetCom
 By LarryStein - Posted on August 19, 2007 - 05:05:08   (#21901)
 Current version when comment was posted: 1.2
I tried, but I cannot go to any website, even I've connected. I also tried to connect it on another computer using Windows and the result is the phone line is in use. (Means the connection is true).

Does Qingdao China NetCom (CNC) is not supported by the PPPoE? I think I have to find another driver for PPPoE now.

I don't check this forum very often, so please e-mail me at nathanw@uchicago.edu if you want support, help, etc. I may lag by a month or more checking Talkback. I'm unlikely to lag more than a day by e-mail.

I do have confirmation that it works with SBC, so that shouldn't be a problem. Did you set the DNS servers? If you have, can you ping the DNS servers?

SBC DSL logs in but I'm unable to surf

Great app & it appears that I am able to log in. The only thing is I can't surf with Mozilla or Netpositive.

Anyone happen to have SBC DSL in California?

I even used the packet adjustment app, but that didn't change anything either. I LOVE BEos, but of course I'd use it more if I could get this $#%#@@!! DSL modem to work.

Perhaps I'm using the wrong static IP address. I'm a pseudo geek & a lot of this stuff just hurts my brain.

Well I run into problem with modem report NO CARRIER.
Yes, I have read the readme file, and the recommendation for the previous poster, that I check if my ethernet card is support. Mind is 3com 3c905c-tx as report by Linux and detected by BeOS R5 dev R1.1 as 3c59x/3c90x(I can't clear this out). My configuration is as recommended
IP: 192.168.0.1
netmask: 255.255.255.0
GW: 0.0.0.0
I have follow the read me file and also try different configuration to no success. BTW, my modem is Aztech (DELL) MDP3380w if it would help.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

CHAP ?
 By timpanic - Posted on May 16, 2003 - 23:52:33   (#7336)
 Current version when comment was posted: 1.2
Hello fellows,
I need Help ! I tried to get in the internet via adsl modem but my provider uses chap authentication. On a lot of sides it is written that beos does NOT support CHAP. Does that mean, that it is impossible to get conntected with BEOS via ADSL CHAP or is there any other way ?
I also tried to connect via Windows XP Internet Sharing but it also failed, cause BEOS seems to ignore the shared connection.
Can anyboby here please give me a hint to get in. Or finally after two weeks trying I start believing that my BEOS never will see the world wide wep ....sigh...



about MTU problems
 By Doxtur - Posted on May 16, 2003 - 22:00:52   (#7335)
 Current version when comment was posted: 1.2
if you have connection troubles, this may help you - http://doxtur.sakha.net/net_server_patched.zip

And also instruction from Philippe Houdoin:

You must modify the value returned by MaxPacketSize() method in the
PPP add-on located here:
/boot/beos/system/add-ons/net_server/ppp

Please, backup this file, by keeping the original version somewhere.
Hint: rename it to ppp.r5, to know it's the original one.

Well, after a quick search (thanks to "objdump --disassemble-all --syms
--demangle"!), there is two patches to do, because this addon instanciate 3
BNetPackets classes: HDLC, PPP and PPPIP, which the two formers returns
a hardcoded MaxPacketSize() value of 1500.

So, you must replace, via DiskProbe (set block size to 512 and use hexa base
mode), the current hardcoded value currently stored in 4 bytes as "dc 05 00 00"
(1500 in decimal) by "d4 05 00 00" (1492 in decimal) at these offset in "ppp"
file:

HDLC::MaxPacketSize() method, block 0x54, block offset 0x154 (global file
offset 0xa954)
PPP::MaxPacketSize() method, block 0xC4, block offset 0x101 (global file
offset 0x18901)

And it should be enought.
Have fun *poking* around ;-)

> And, btw ... i cannot connect to PPPoE with BONE, have you description
> on how should i do it?

If you've the PPP MTU bug under net_server, under BONE you should
tell your network card to use a lower MTU limit. Run this:

$ ifconfig /dev/net/your_card_name_here/0 mtu 1492

If it works, add this line in your UserBootscript...

I've no experience with PPPoE under BONE, so if it don't, I can't be of much
help, sorry.

Occasionally stops.

Got it to work only after moving pppoe to the sysem/add-ons.
Seems to be more stable with DNS in both DUN & Networking.
Will randomly stop and need restarting ((even though DUN still thinks
it's connected). Will definitely stop working in middle of high bandwidth transfer (e.g big picture).


Works super on ADSL in South Africa
 By helmar - Posted on May 9, 2003 - 08:34:59   (#7227)
 Current version when comment was posted: 1.2
Works just fine on R5 with the ADSL Ethernet Router offered by Telkom here in South Africa. You'll have to enter the DNS servers (196.43.1.13, 196.43.3.206)though. It will then connect in a jiffy and without any dialer nonsense software that they provide you with on Windows.

Great work, Nathan!

Hi Nathan

Thank you for the quick answer. I guess you are right: Although my 3com card is indicated "ready" in the network preferences, i still can not ping anything. I'll try to find a working card and will be back.

NO CARRIER
 By NathanW - Posted on February 12, 2003 - 19:36:59   (#5902)
 Current version when comment was posted: 1.2
A NO CARRIER message indicates one of three things: (1) you use a non-standard PPPoE implementation, (2) your ethernet card is not configured correctly, or (3) your ethernet card is not supported. From what you have said, I would check on (2) and (3).

Does not work with Bluewin (Switzerland)
 By LeSid - Posted on February 11, 2003 - 16:42:08   (#5876)

Hi all!

I've installed the driver as described plus configured the DNS in the network config. Then I connect, a new window "PPP Terminal" appears (is that supposed to be here?) with a button "Start PPP" Whatever I do, there is the message "Modem cannot connect (NO CARRIER)".

My DSL works fine with RASPPPoE under Win98, the PPP-Tool in Knoppix 3 and the SUSe Linux 8.1 DSL-Configurator.

What could I do? Any idea would certainly be very apreciated.

Sid

Disconnect after three seconds
 By NathanW - Posted on February 9, 2003 - 20:44:12   (#5838)
 Current version when comment was posted: 1.2
This problem is due to an incompatibility between net_server's PPP stack and your PPPoE server that I can't fix (since the bug is in the net_server). The only solution is bugging your ISP. This seems to inordinately affect people in Germany, probably due to some order of buggy equipment from Deutsche Telekom.

Verizon *should* work fine
 By NathanW - Posted on February 9, 2003 - 20:41:43   (#5837)
 Current version when comment was posted: 1.2
I use Verizon myself, and the driver was developed against a Verizon server for that reason, so I am surprised to hear it doesn't work. Do you use Mac/WinPoET in OtherOS?

NO CARRIER indicates a problem in finding PPPoE servers and is something that Verizon tech support (as terrible as it is) may be able to help you with. Just tell them you got a "PADO not received" error. Failing that, see if people need to do anything special with *nix PPPoE in your area.

Good luck!

OK, I followed the instructions and tried it, but altough it says Connnecting to AntelData ADSL and I can see the transmit and receive lights on the ADSL Modem blink

If I read all this right, I have just spent two days downloading, burning and installing a very promising OS, but I can't get online with it. Now, there used to be a time when that would have been only a minor complaint, but these days? ICK!
So yeah, I've noticed PPTP is not very popular (only Holland and France?), but it seems it's what I have. Please, anyone with The Gift, give it a shot and help us out here... If I can help with testing or anything, let me know.

Actually, Brazil Telecom does work with BeOS. You'll need to locate the non-standard packet type codes it uses (look up instructions for Linux), and send them to me. I can help you from there.

Verizon works, and well (I use it myself, it was developed based on my Verizon connection). Big Pond does not work, as it uses CHAP, which is not supported by the BeOS PPP stack.

There is a bug that I am trying to fix where if you disconnect you need to restart networking to reconnect. Sorry about that; I'll try to fix it.

HI

Installed drivers in accordance with instructions (I think). Trying to connect to Australian BigPond ADSL. Uses PPPoE and chap authentication. Using BeOS 5.03 and supported network card - Intel Ethernet Pro 100/10.

The first time I attempt to connect following boot I get a message saying incorrect username or password : they are correct. Second and subsequent attempts to connect result in message "cannot open serial port".

Any help would be much appreciated.

Has anyone tried this with Verizon's DSL service in Eastern US? My ISP is called "Enter.net" and they offer DSL via Verizon. Sadly, my phone provider is RCN and the bastards do not allow Enter.net to lookup the phone line I am using to see if I could even use DSL... then I have to worry about whether it would work with BeOS...

did everything readme said, did some things post in talk-back such as putting DNS address in PPP and in Networking. When I hit connect there is activity on the modem and sometimes it says "connecting 256000" but then it says NO CARRIER or just "not connected". Perhaps a network problem? I normally use EnterNet software on other computers, is there EnterNet software for BeOS that I need?

BeOS 5.0.3 Pro Freezes At Every Boot After 9 Seconds Following PPPoE Activation
 By slokout - Posted on June 10, 2002 - 12:38:36   (#1758)
 Current version when comment was posted: 1.2
Processor: Intel Celeron 800MHz
Motherboard: VIA chipset
Monitor Card: ATI Xpert98
PPPoE version: Latest posted (as of June 9, 2002)

Problem: BeOS 5.0.3 Pro always freezes 8-9 seconds after Taskbar comes up fully. This happens at every boot following activation of PPPoE. PPPoE does work, though, after it is installed, but only in the BeOS session in which it is installed. Afterwards, of course, it doesn't get another chance.

Mysteriously, it used to work fine, subsequent bootups included, without my specifying the DNS addresses, even after I'd checked off the Manual DNS choice. I *think* this is the first time I've tried it with this latest motherboard.

Have not tried to reboot after merely unpacking PPPoE. Have tried it with Manual DNS item checked, both with and without specifying DNS IPs in Network preferences - top item on interface checked both times, of course. Have tried it without Manual DNS checked as well.

Mouse freezes at reboot; have never tried yet to stare down screen clock, so don't *really* know if whole system crashes: that's just my Wintel experience talking.

Have tried to restore status quo ante by going in thorugh Safe Mode, turning PPPoE off by unchecking the interface choices, and removing PPPoE from net_server(sic) and trashing all choices in Network and DialUp Networking preferences.

Wish I could find out what else to restore: I'm tired of reinstalling. I'm also tired of using Wintel for BeOS internet business while this is going on: my acoustic modem is PCI, and BeOS seems unable to assign a serial port to it.

Given the fine ELN/Mindspring review, Please tell me what I'm doing wrong.

Works with cable TV broadband connection.
 By Froggy2 - Posted on November 21, 2001 - 18:13:20   (#372)
 Current version when comment was posted: 1.2
My local ISP distributes now Enternet300 (from Efficient Networks Inc.) as client to connect to cable TV broadband internet, thru PPPoE protocol. I was a bit disappointed, thinking I will never get the right driver for BeOS. I found this driver here and despite it was intented to be used with xDSL modems (even connected to an Ethernet board), I decided to download and install it. First, I read the guidelines available here and decided to have a try.
My Ethernet board was already configured and worked fine. Then I setup the driver this way :
- type/make of modem : "custom"
- number to dial : "4455667788" (has no meaning in fact..)
- AT commands : "nothing" (blank field)
I just click "restart network services" then "connect" and here I was.. I had just time to read "CONNECT 256000" in the terminal window and I was surfing the web again ! Congratulations !



Bell HSE DNS note

 Current version when comment was posted: 1.2
To be shure that you don't have any problems,
put the DNS address in the ppp connection and in NETWORK where
you set up your ethernet card.
I did have problems if the DNS are only in ppp.
- only sympatico.ca worked
- in the connection tab, the connected time goes back to 0
after a short time (about 3 sec)
- Other sites worked 1 on 15 reconnect

Everything works fine if the DNS is configured in the network config !
Thanks Nathan for this great DRIVER
