<para>Like many USB devices the Alcatel SpeedTouch USB needs to |
| 2146 |
download firmware from the host computer to be usable. It is |
| 2147 |
possible to automate this process in &os; so that this is done |
| 2148 |
whenever the device is plugged into a USB port. The following |
| 2149 |
information needs to be added to |
| 2150 |
<filename>/etc/usbd.conf</filename> and to do this you will need |
| 2151 |
to be logged in as the <username>root</username> user. |

<para>It is also possible to set up <application>PPP</application> |
| 2165 |
to dial up at startup. To do this add the following lines to |
| 2166 |
<filename>/etc/rc.conf</filename>, again for this procedure you |
| 2167 |
will need to be logged in as the <username>root</username> |

<filename role="package">net/pppoa</filename> port.</para> |
