I switched from IPCOP/Smoothwall to m0n0wall using the same hardware,
with no problems at all. Still use both for dial-up as m0n0wall is for
broadband only.

Now that's interesting information. My ISP claims those two modems work
on two different DSLAMS.

My DSL provider/ISP at the moment (soon to change hands again for the
third time in ~4 yrs.)is Altell.

I'm running the same version/platform that you're running at the moment.
I also use CDROM version 1.2b7.

BTW, I reread your status.php posting & it looks like there is a problem
with the NIC cards.

If, rl0: is your WAN interface, it should be running (100baseTX
<full-duplex>) as is fxp0: Most likely the reason for the slow speed.
