Here: We need to configure the kernel of our gentoo b0x, we give support to ip and ppp Networking ---> Networking options ---> <*> Unix domain sockets[*] TCP/IP networking Device Drivers ---> Network device support --->[*] Network device support <*> PPP (point-to-point protocol) support <*> PPP support for async serial ports <*> PPP support for sync tty ports <*> PPP Deflate compression <*> PPP BSD-Compress compression then we make active: Device Drivers ---> SCSI device support ---> <*> SCSI CDROM support USB support ---> <*> Support for Host-side USB <*> UHCI HCD (most Intel and VIA) support <*> USB Mass Storage support USB Serial Converter support ---> <*> USB Serial Converter support <*> USB driver for GSM and CDMA modems finally we compile our kernel and reboot the system, and then we add our modem with our Network Manager (gnome) and it will work fine By the way, after reboot, as root : eject /dev/sr0 (to make it work) Regards -- Carlos Sura.-
