! Obtain Modem Driver Source
I orignally obtained the source for the module from the NZDSL site. It is all packaged in RPM format and if you were running Redhat with the right kernel version you might be lucky enough to get away with just installing the RPM. However for those of us on debian it takes a bit more work. I extracted the source from the RPM and built the module and the associated utilites from that.
-You can find the source at the following location http://www.wlug.org.nz/archive/CnxADSL-TgrATM_k2.4.3-6.1.2.007.tar.bz2

-Apparently it is for Kernel 2.4.3 but I have successfully run it with Kernels 2.4.19 and 2.4.20, it does complain about unresolved symbols, however ignoring this message does not seem to break anything :)

**This script is very similar to the original, but I have modified it to work correctly with debian. The important parts are the parameters that are passed to the module, don't ask me what they are needed for, but they are, and the call to cnxadslconfig to set the VPI and the VCI.

!! Configure PPPoA
The modem driver is now up and running. However before you can actually get on the internet you will need to configure PPPoA.
Setting up PPPoA in Linux is documented on the following page [LinuxPPPoA].
