Hi, Recently I installed Linux to find that I
couldn't get on the net because I had a winmodem, so I bought a Viking
Components 56k External modem(It's serial too, not USB) When I use Kppp to
set everything up, the modem is detected and I know it works right. I have
all my personal connection information entered... I have the DNS info entered,
domain name, etc. When I connect, the modem does connect, though only for
around 1 second and then it doesn't send or receive any data. I called my
ISP and FINALLY got someone who knew something about Linux, he told me that he
heard about people with Lucent modems(my Viking modem) having problems
connecting to the internet. Does anyone have any idea what my problem
is?
Thanks,
Tanner Holloway
