At&t Yahoo Dsl Setup on Mandriva Linux
If you are having trouble trying to install at&t yahoo dsl on your linux os, then hopefully this guide will show you how to set up at&t yahoo dsl on your linux pc. In my guide on how to setup att dsl, I will be using Mandriva linux.
This tutorial should also apply to pretty much all the other linux distributions on the market. Also in my tutorial on installing at&t yahoo dsl on a linux os, I will be using a 2wire 2700hg-b wireless router, but this guide should also work for other 2wire routers that at&t ships out.
The first thing that you must do to install at&t dsl on your linux machine is setup up your ethernet adapter to connect using dhcp. In the mandriva linux distro, you would go to:
- Menu
- Tools
- System Tools
- Configure your Computer
Then once the window below appears, you would then click on the Network and Internet tab on the left side, then click on setup a new network interface.
Once you open the “setup a new network interface” tab, click ethernet and click next.
Then select your nic card from the list and click next.
Select automatic Ip BOOTP/DHCP
Now you would put a check mark next to Get DNS servers from Dhcp and a check mark next to Assign host name from Dhcp address.
After you have completed the above, you should now have a working ethernet adapter on your linux distro. The next thing that you are going to want to do is begin to register your at&t yahoo dsl account on your linux pc. To start registering your account, all you have to do is open a web browser. I recommend using Konqueror, if you are using KDE as your desktop; I had problems with mozilla firefox. After you open your browser, you should have a windows that resembles the one below.
The next thing that your are going to install at&t yahoo dsl on your linux os is type in https://sbcreg.sbcglobal.net/ into your web browser. This should open a web page that shows the current at&t members agreement. All you have to do now is click on the “I Agree” button, to continue the registration process of your At&t dsl account
