[lug] Qwest's Actiontec 1520 and Linux Success? (OT)

[Jeff]

I don't know if this will work with Qwest's config, but I have a
Speedstream 5260 (ADSL modem) that I used to use.  I used it with SBC
(back when I lived in Dallas), but if Qwest is using DHCP, this should
work.  I succssfully used it with linux.  I now have cable modem.
