running scripts on FreeBSD 5.3

[Alistair Bryan]

Hi there,

The site I downloaded the driver from mainly does drivers for Linux but 
they had a development version for BSD which I downloaded.  The URL is 
http://eciadsl.flashtux.org/download.php?lang=en (BSD stuff athe the 
bottom of the page).

dmesg didn't mention the modem which is a Dlink DSL-200 USB ADSL modem 
which as usual only has drivers for Windows.

This seems to be the only way to get connected with this device.

Regards

Al
