You need kernel 2.4.7 or later(the driver may be included in 2.4.6.but im not sure)when compiling it put support for the catc ethernet.If you dont have a catc(thats what I got from them)then a driver is probaly included in the newest kernels.

Will your modem hook up via ethernet cable? I bought my own modem cause @home charges me $10 less a month for not using theirs. I have a RCA DCM225 that works just fine. They had to send a tech out to enter the damn thing in their database though, and I still have to fax them a letter saying I got my own modem to get the $10 knocked off my bill. :rolleyes:
