i did the procedures such as installing rp-pppoe, adsl-start and adsl-status
all seem to work perfectly.. even adsl-status gives me the output that i see in windows when i type ipconfig/all
It seems that your connection is setup properly.
but the problem is that i am not able to surf the web or ping any websites.
ah ... check the file '/etc/resolv.conf'
This file lists nameservers that are used to resolve domains. If there are no entries in this file you could add nameserver entries in teh format:
nameserver xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx
where 'xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx' is the nameserver ip address.
Also if you want to use the nameservers provided by your ISP, choose 'server' as the nameserver source during adsl-setup.
Happy hacking !!
