Question How do I set up my Broadband Connection on FC5 using my USB modem

I have installed FC5 and everything but I just cannot figure out how to setup my Broadband on FC5. I use a USB Speedtouch 330 modem. On my WinXp install, they give you a disk that sets it up all for you. Unfortunatly, I don't have that luxury for FC.

How the hell do I set it up?

Ha Ha. Thanks. Now I'm getting somewhere. Hopefully whithin an hour the net will flow through my FC5.

EDIT:

Well, done what they said, tried both methods of connecting. The first one just doesn't work. The second one, when I start up it gets stuck on connectng or something PPP. I'll try again and report back.
