What do you want to know exactly? I can give you very stupid answers but more intelligent once too. What's the scope you're hung up on?

Maybe I don't understand you perfectly, but:
- if you use your modem at home with ppp utilities then you will not use any ethernet cards for connection to the web. So you can forget it. Unless you have a 'not-dial-in' oppurtunity:
- there are modems (for inst. ADSL) that you can mostly be connected over an ethernet card to. That's why the protocol -they use- is called PPPoE (ppp over ethernet). Unfortunately menuetOS doesn't support it yet. Sometimes the ADSL modem and the ethernet card are built in a compact unit so they aren't separated from each other.
- if you are behind a server (e.g. the proxy server of the school etc.) then you connect to this server over your ethernet card. That is your machine is a simple member of the given local area network (LAN).

Endre.

If I understand you right MEOS doesn't support PPPoE protocol?
