1. Check that the modem is really plugged into Com2 (/dev/ttyS1)
2. What dial and init strings are you using ?  It *may* be that you just need to mod these
3. What brand/model of modem ?

Hi all,
 
It's the pest again, sorry for being such a pest, but I have tried everything that I know and have had no success connecting to internet.
 
My ISP who is austarnet suggested that I check my modem drivers as this might be the problem. By using different mail programs I get different results. Also using harddrake it doesn't show my modem, so I am more confused. I don't even get dial tone like I do with windows.
 
When I try to connect using kppp it informs me that it cannot find "/dev/ttyS0" and when I set it to /dev/ttyS1 it inform me that the modem is ready then it says sorry the modem does not respond.
 
Any suggestions.
Paul
