My apologies for not reading the post properly... it was stated clearly that it was a USB modem. Well, i learnt my lesson with a USB modem a few years back...it's not gonna work unless u run it on windoz. Or, at best, it's gonna be an on-off case...bad connectivity, etc, etc. i Agree fully, a serial port modem is the best...coz it's a hardware modem, totally independent of the OS. <a href="http://www.spreadfirefox.com/community/?q=affiliates&id=0&t=61";><img border="0" alt="Get Firefox!" title="Get Firefox!" src="http://www.spreadfirefox.com/community/images/affiliates/Buttons/110x32/trust.gif"/></a> -- ______________________________________________ Check out the latest SMS services @ http://www.linuxmail.org This allows you to send and receive SMS through your mailbox.
