I have been told and seen it written as well that a WIN modem will not work
with a Linux system (ppp cannot talk through a WIN modem). I have tried a
number of different things to see if my modem works with Linux...but still
am not 100% that it is my modem that does not allow a connect. Yes, I am
linked to the correct com port, and yes, I have my DNS nameserver IP #s
correct.

Does anyone out there know a foolproof way to know if a modem is a Win modem?
My best attempt was to type: chat "" ATZ OK     and wait for the modem to
answer me back with the OK. I remember doing this with an old Apple 2e
computer in the days before Windows using a Hayes external modem. Any
comments or suggestions????

By the way, I have an Aztech MD6802-U modem (which suspiciously does not
have any jumper pins...which Win modems never have).
