Rep Power: 9 | u are presently on Bridge mode. shifting to PPPoE mode [connecting from the modem with ID & password saved in the modem] would make your modem system independent. for changinf the configuration, u can access the modem from your browser by using the address 192.168.1.1 and user id & password both as "admin" |

| change your modem config from bridge mode to pppoe mode from windows and after that install/boot linux ... this should work for you. |

| Amor vincit omnia | Configuring the connection in bridged mode in the latest ubuntu 8.10 is similar to windows, complete with wizards. |
