Dear Greg, I do not know if this helps you because I am not familiar with your modem or situation however, I am using Suse 8 now as well as Mandrake 9 and the Suse 8 discussion group has this suggestion: >If you follow exactly ( and nothing more) the instructions from SuSE >http://sdb.suse.de/en/sdb/html/configSpeedTouch.html >it works fine. No longer need for the Benoit Papillault modules. No files to modify. I hope someone is able to help you. Good luck. Sincerely, Marcia that sounded related to your problem.
