i've got ntl broadband, the modem connects to my computer via USB. i tried setting the modem up on linux, got it running on peanut linux with dhcpcd -d.

however on slackware linux and other distros i cant start the connection by typing dhcpcd -d. i don't know the reason but when i run ifconfig -a i don't see the cable modem there. on peanut the cable modem was assigned eth1.

how can i get the modem to work on other distros.

thank you
