Hi
First off I am new to Linux so please accept apologies for possibly dumb questions I cannot connect to outside world after installing drivers - extract for /var/log/messages below indicates (to me) that modem is working OK. I have looked through archive and a previous message indicates that I should get /etc/ppp/resolve.conf file created when I connect to openworld - this is not happening ifconfig shows ppp0 interface with no traffic If I try and ping a known ip I get "network unreachable" Can anyone show me where I might be going wrong Cheers Paul May 27 14:21:51 andromeda kernel: hub.c: USB new device connect on bus1/2, assigned device number 3 May 27 14:21:51 andromeda kernel: usb.c: USB device 3 (vend/prod 0x6b9/0x4061) is not claimed by any active driver.
