I write this because people have been sending me questions regarding how to connect streamyx broadband service on Ubuntu Linux. IMHO, this thing happened for two reasons
- Ubuntu has been shipping GNU/Linux for free
- Ubuntu doesn’t provide obvious way to connect to broadband
OK now, just cross your finger, open a gnome-terminal, and type :
$ sudo pppoeconf
and follow the step-by-step screenshot! Heh, i’m not being lazy to type the rest of the guide, I just don’t know how to write a proper one!
slm,
aq type sudo pppoeconf
pastu kie kuar [sudo] password username:
tpi aq nk taip password x bley
tkn key huruf x nk kuar
camne ek?
thanks

rromie,
Any broadband modem will work with Ubuntu (and the rest of GNU/Linux, FreeBSD, etc), as long as it is not a USB broadband modem.
Pick a modem that use RJ45 connector, the one that plugged right to the network card, and you’ll be fine :)
If you dont have a network card, then you better get a network card, typical price is RM25-RM45 (generic rtl-8139 type)
Nice guide, I have tried Ubuntu too. However main drawback is that I haven’t got broadband yet, hence the apt-get took hours. Now I’m considering to get broadband, can you recomment a modem that will work in ubuntu? Thanks.
