Its pretty straight forward once you have it installed
basically just plug the modem into a serial port and then address it as 
/dev/ttySx where x=0 for COM1 and x=1 for COM2.
the easiest was may be to go into linuxconf and add a PPP connection that 
way, just tell it the serial port, ph number login details etc.
Then, once thats done, grab the basic masq text from the ipmasq howto. or 
once you get to there, send us more mail :)
