Ok, you never mentioned (1)the plug-n-play issue, (2) nor have you mentioned
whether you've used "setserial" to properly set up your com port. Read the
setserail man page, and also check out the "isapnptools" on redhat's site. I
had two modems that were plug-n-play, but one of them was the winmodem. I was
able to get the non-winmodem working with the plug-n-play tools and setserial.
The winmodem is a loss.

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).
