Unless you mispoke, I believe you may be misusing /dev/modem. /deb/modem is not a device itself, only a sym link (the wisdom of which is frequently disputed) which points to the serial device your modem is connected to. You want /dev/modem to be a sim link pointing to /deb/ttyS0. As people have

Hi, For the starters you could try /dev/ttyS0 instead of /dev/tty0. If /dev/ttyS0 doesn't work try ttyS1-ttyS3. The /dev/ttyS0 through /dev/ttyS3 are the com devices in Linux. For testing you could try minicom (comm/minicom_1.75-2.deb in stable) and issue some AT commands (ATI4 might output so

Have you tried something like minicom. It just dials your modem but is nice for doing some diagnostics. You can tell it to use either /dev/tty?? or /dev/modem. You could also tell your ppp dialer to use a tty instead of modem. /dev/modem is just a convenience -- not a requirement. -- TO UNSUB
