There are drivers and howtos for the alcatel speedtouch modem (usb). I
have come across them in my search for help to get my eciadsl modem
running. Still trying. If you need a quick start on the internet my
experience is, that you need to spend money for an ethernet modem. Getting
a usb modem working is obviously possible, people have done it, but so
fiddly for newcomers to linux.
