Why people always respond to this with "get a router" or "lol it doesnt have ethernet" is just beyond me. I've had the same issue for some time now and I haven't resolved it yet thanks to such people, because every thread about it everywhere on the net looks the same. First for Symbian, now for Maemo. For the not-making-sense part - it's possible to use PPPoE via WLAN. Guess you didn't know that. In fact, many wireless providers around here use that system. Maybe that's not the best solution, but that's what they're using, and that's what I would like to be able to use. So a router won't solve my problems (I have one already, but I don't intend to carry it around with me), and I don't want to plug ethernet cable in my N900. So a very simple question - does anyone know how to setup PPPoE on Maemo? I used "pppoeconf" and "pon/poff" on Ubuntu and expected it to be present here also, but it isn't. If anyone knows how to to install it, or some alternative, info would be appreciated.
