Well, it seems to be an external serial modem, so it ought to work.

Common problems are:

Modem not switched on
Modem not connected to PC
Modem not connected to phone line
Misidentifying the serial port (/dev/ttyS?)
Permissions on the serial port device
Mis-typing the ISP phone number, username, or password

These are the easy ones to detect and fix.

By the way, I used KPPP for modem trickery and it seemed to do the Right
Thing (but no good if you use Gnome).

HTH,

Andrew
