Hi friends! I am new to Linux.I use DSL live cd to experience linux OS.quite an enjoyable experience.I am having a Dlink dsl-502T adsl router with usb connection which works very well in windows 2000 and windows XP.but i am unable to use the same router in DSL linux.i think the drivers for this router is not loaded in linux and hence it is not recognised in DSL linux.any help or suggestion to install and use this Dlink usb adsl router in DSL linux will be very much appreciated.thanks a lot.
regards to all

1) Buy a Network card for your computer. Most are supported by Linux. Use it to talk to your router.

2) Try this. Open a terminal and type this, using the EXACT UPPERCASE and lowercase letters:

sudo su
modprobe CDCEther
netcardconfig

and maybe:
pppoeconfig
