I have been told that since OS/2 supports networks and that xDSL is connected by a network card to the pc, OS/2 can support xDSL. I have yet to find a xDSL service that supports OS/2? Is there one? Even if there don't support OS/2, can Warp be used with a xDSL service?
OS/2 Warp-ed to the very end.

The question if OS/2 supports xDSL, well ofcourse! If the ISP supports OS/2 or not should neither be the question to be asked. If you have the hardware to connect to a ADSL or any other xDSL service, well it works. Most ISP usually just think that everybody are running winloze and therefore never mention OS2 in the information or service agreements the ship out. Check out a german company called Hypercope ( http://www.hypercope.de/ ) xDSL hardware with drivers support for OS/2.

DSL connect is done with ppp over ethernet. I haven't tried it, but maybe it is useful to you
