thanks..

try installing the driver on this site

http://www.mbsi.ca/cnxtlindrv/hcf/index.html

i got this error message after installed that driver..

thanks

Y don t u try to install the rpm file for your specific version of distro .. i had tried it out and worked perfectly on redhat 8.0.. which is the distro you are running ? did u try minicom.. first try out a rpm file and then configure you r modem using
minicom -s
info to install a connexnat modem can be found @ my website

http://www.infologics.50megs.com/linux.htm

check that too..

yikes !! i forgot that i had removed the content on connexant modems ...

i installed the right distro's driver(everything is right) but I found out that there is a problem with some type of conexant modems. Some modems can be determined as HCF but they're HSF or vice versa.. I think I have this problem.. When I go home I'll try HSF drivers..

thanks..
