I'm sorry - I wanted to get with you on this earlier in the week but my job
has been crazy - off the chain, here. Chuq, I'm not ignoring you and I
really appreciate your willingness to come set me up - I just really would
like to accomplish this on my own, I will learn a lot if I can get this
right.
Okay, Let me make sure I understand what I need to do.
1. Rather than logging into my tower as guest or the root pass word I
am to log in as Ping 192.168.1.254
This will open my tower and run Vector Linux
2. Open the browser - SeaMonkey and
Type http://192.168.1.254/ into the address bar
3. Make the Ethernet connection to the
DSL modem and tower ( I assume this means to connect all of the
lines to the phone line, modem and tower), all lights should be green on
the modem and hold(not flash and or go off) This should open a page with
at&t and MOTOROLA on the top and Access Code Required after that.
Follow the rest of your instructions from this point on.
After going through everything as instructed am I to go to the Computer Icon
and type in PPPoE-Setup and go through that configuration?

Setting up AT&T DSL under Linux (Draft)
Before staring this you need to have your Ethernet connection up to your
DSL modem try typing "ping 192.168.1.254" w/o quotes at the command line
(as root) If you need help with your Ethernet connection let us know.
Here is the "simple" <ha, ha> step by step directions that I think will
work. <Got to love those Windows Only companies. I guess as long as it's
between monopolies....>
1. Start up Vector Linux
2. Open your web browser
3. Type http://192.168.1.254/ into the address bar
This should open a page with at&t and MOTOROLA on the top and
Access Code Required after that
4. Enter your access code (from the underside of your modem) then
press continue.
5. Enter sbcyahooreg@xxxxxxxxxxxxx as your user ID and sbcyahooreg as
your password then press Save changes at the bottom of the page.
6. Type https://sbcreg.sbcglobal.net/DSLRegWeb/ into your web browser
address bar it should take you to the first page of the sign up site
(terms of service)
7. When you get to the page with your Member ID and password
confirmation print or write it down (very important)
8. Type http://192.168.1.254/ into the web browser address bar
9. There are links on the left side of the page find the word "Login"
among the links, then click the disconnect button.
10. Click the word "Advanced" to make all the links visible.
11. Now click the words Connection Configuration and enter the Modem
Access Code.
12. Enter the Member ID and password that was created earlier on the
Connection Configuration page and press Save Changes.
13. After doing tis your AT&T Yahoo connection should be ready to use
and you should be able to browse to anyplace on the Internet.
Now you need to complete the AT&T Yahoo HSI Email part of the registration.
You must complete this part to activate and use the email account(s).
1. Go to http://www.sbc.yahoo.com in your web browser.
2 . Login with your Member ID and password created earlier.
3. Complete the "Marketing Preferences" to activate the email account.
Hope this helps,
Mike
