hi...I have a computer DSL setup....I comfigured PPPOE by sudo pppoeconf then enter my username and password in ubuntu toconnect to internet how can I connect to internet using Haiku..?
I would also like to know how to do this directly in Haiku.
Another solution which I use is to configure the modem or (wireless) router to connect using PPPoE (giving it the user/password). You can usually login in to your modem or router settings user interface with your web browser (WebPositive in Haiku).
There is no PPPoE support as yet. When there is, it'll invariably have a graphical configuration panel
The last time this came up I was surprised at how relatively common it still was to get a DSL unit that requires PPPoE as routers have been standard-issue in this part of the world since day one... for now, you'll need to get a router to get Haiku online in that configuration.
