I installed Ubuntu (Breezy) onto a friend's box this evening. Everything went smoothly, except for the network setup, which did not go forward as his ADSL modem, a Siemens SpeedStream 4200, was not detected. It was complicated by its being connected not with the usual ethernet cable but by USB. I could not even bring up the eth0 interface. I believe the SpeedStream 4200 is the device now used by Sympatico for its subscribers. Does anyone have any experience setting one of these up, with or without ethernet?
