Yea, the modem has got to be involved somehow.  Since it does the same
thing with both Mandrake & Gentoo.  Also I used the ISP before with a
different modem and Mandrake and it was fine.  And this ISP currently
works fine with this modem and another modem under Winblows.  So I'm
pretty certain the modem is involved.  I just need to figure out what to
tweak.  

Thanks much - Adrian
