To check you can type ls, for a list of files in the directory.<BR>

Opened MCC; follow internet configuration wizard,<BR>

- uncheck the ethernet, leave the winmodem checked. Then continue: hsflinmodem software detected - install rpm? (click YES).</I></FONT>

- click apply or OK (both are tried).<BR>

Close the MCC.<BR>
<BR>
- Try to connect:<BR>
<BR>
device modem changed into: /dev/modem - not working; (error kppp doesn't recognize)<BR>
<BR>
change to: dev/ttyS0 - modem ready - initialyizing modem -> then just hung up..like freezing...no signs et all..The same thing happened when I change into /dev/ttyS1;</I></FONT>
</BLOCKQUOTE>
<FONT SIZE="3">Set it to /dev/modem, as that will always be the name of the default modem.<BR>
You could type /sbin/ifup ppp0.<BR>
This will try to connect, without using kppp.<BR>
