Why is there no response? It's a really bad bug for users using ADSL, which makes they are totally lost.

Dorphell seems very busy these days (several packages he maintains have been flaged out-of-date, maybe I should be more patient, : -).

Why no one confirms it, is there no one except me using ADSL connection? It's a serious bug for common user if they don't know how to deal with it.
"adsl-start" changed to "pppoe-start" also makes people confusing, could you add a reminding message in the install script.

adsl-setup changed to pppoe-setup, too.
I can confirm this bug.
