Hi laxman,

  I am using a pptp client to access the internet with the ADSL 1000 Alcatel 
modem. In my case, I am connected to the box via an ethernet link : It means 
that my Ethernet Card is 10.0.0.1 and my Modem as another IP adress like 
10.0.0.138

  To connect to my ISP, I launch pptp 10.0.0.138 which enable my acces to 
the internet. (I don't use any ISP adress)

Hopping this will help,

Mathieu
