[newbie] RE: stop email please
I recently purchashed Linux-Mandrake 6.5 and I am not able to configure the modem so that it connects to the internet. Maybe it's because I have winmodem. Also my provider is ATT. Which modem do you think I should use so that I can connect to the internet? Does the modem have to be the technology V90 to be used with Linux?
