Hi there,
I downloaded the driver for my pctel internel modem from www.linmodems.org and 
I was able to get my modem detected but when I try to connect , the modem 
gives a message "No Carrier" and disconnects I searced everywhere for the 
solution but the modem-howto says that it is bug with the 2.4.x kernels and 
the only workarround is to load and unload the modules , but even that 
doesn't seem to solve the problem........please suggest a solution 
.........if someone has managed to get it working please send me a 
message.....thanx in advance.......I thought it might be a good idea to 
contact the author of the driver.....so I am going to drop a mail to him to 
see if he can help??? I have included the output from scanmodem utility below.
 
Vivek.
