USB Modem on Linux

[Bharat Shetty]

Hi *,

I got an Airtel Broad band connection soon as I switched to Bangalore. Pretty solid plans they have got. But there is little hilch.

They have provided me an ADSL USB modem with following specs:

ZyXEL 630-C1 aka OMNI ADSL USB (Annex A) Equivalent of 0572:cb00 ( Prestige 630-C1 ).

I told them at start I tend to use Linux heavily and they told this should work. Well now getting it to work on Linux is giving me creeps. Bit googling I found this modem was of Conextant Accessrunner chipset. As per the following url

http://accessrunner.sourceforge.net/modems.shtml

This modem is supported to work with this Driver. Now how can I get it working. Messed around here. How module can be inserted and built into kernel ?

The wise hackers of mylug, please once again help me :)
