DSL

[Dennis Castanos]

It's a DSL modem.  The tech support doesn't support linux.  When I switch 
providers a tech told me he uses linux and it would run just find, but the 
don't give support for it.  When I told him my problem the only command he 
help me with was
sudo chattr +i /etc/resolv.conf
When I had my lines checked AT&T says they don't support it either.
WESTELL - Model 890-220030-0481 which I puchased to avoid signing a 
contract.
