You didn't describe your problem very accurately, but you might wanna
check out a recent posting with caption something like ADSL & pppoe
connection problem. It also concerns a dual boot system and windows not
shutting down components properly.
To be short, try this:
- Shut down the system.
- Pull all the plugs (or use a physical power switch on the computer, no
need to touch the modem, but try it anyways).
- Restart directly to linux.
- Try the connection.
If this fixes it, see the posting for a fix and a reason. (Though it
partially is still under slight dispute)
Just a suggestion. Could be a million other things. What does ifconfig
say? lsmod? Etc.
