A new thread... I realise that ADSL/ADSL2/ADSL2+ has higher voltage requirements than can generally be met by USB/USB2/USB3, but not sure if that isn't a solvable problem that might already have been solved? I can't find anything on the interwebs that gives me much encouragement. Ideally, I would like to power my (bare/bridge) ADSL2+ modem from my laptop's power supply/battery and the obvious way to do that would be to use a USB-based modem. My (Linux) laptop would then do the rest and I can (trivially?) keep it patched etc. and keep a closer eye on what is really going back and forth on the ADSL connection... Anybody got any thoughts or recommendations? cheers, Bob Edwards. -- linux mailing list [email protected] https://lists.samba.org/mailman/listinfo/linux
