    Has anyone successfully got Linux working with TalkTalk?
    The sales guy assured me that it was supported ( i know, i know),
    The modem to exchange is fine and showing a constant 13.6 meg.

    I can ping the Huawei HG521 over the network cable, can look inside BB
    Modem but can't get a browser to work.

    Says it can't find the address try again later.

    And yes the support guys are saying they don't support Linux

    cheers

    I know next to fek all about linux but that looks like a DNS prob. If
    you do an ipconfig are you pointing to the correct DNS servers?

    Can you ping an external IP address? 195.8.69.7 for example?
    Not a linux issue. As others have said, it's almost certainly DNS

    What's in your /etc/resolv.conf file?
