This detects my winmodem fine, but when I try to connect to the net, it gives me a message saying "modem is busy". Hmmmm :-) It also gives this message when I query the modem (I'm using kppp to try to access the internet). So, just wondering if someone may be able to offer a fix for this. Many thanks in advance!
