Hello Ahmed(rulezz),

Can you post the output of:

/sbin/lspci -n

for me? I may be able to help.

Thanks,
Jeff

Well, it shows the entry for modem but my modem name is the one I specified before. Kindly help me out. Do you think is it already installed? How to access it then? Well just for the sake of reminder, I am using Linux RHEL 3.0

Thanks for your reply. Waiting for your response.

Best regards

Ah, looks like you have an Intel modem - often a company will repackage a modem from another manufacturer and put their name on the box. lspci always tells the truth.

You should probably contact the helpful people at linmodems.org:

http://linmodems.technion.ac.il/#scanmodem

They created a program called "scanmodem" which will give you advice on which driver to use. If the output is confusing you can send a copy of the ModemData.txt file it creates to discuss@linmodems.org and they will help you.

Good luck,
Jeff

That's strange. Well, if you cannot email them you can search their archives at linmodems.technion.ac.il. Here is one recent post that may be relevant:

http://linmodems.technion.ac.il/arch.../msg01373.html

I don't know much about your modem, or I could help you better. Good luck.

Jeff
