Cameron:

I have a Hayes 5675 v.90 modem that works perfectly fine with Windows. I need a modem for a FC4 machine I am building and I would like to use this modem in the Linux machine. I don't find this particular modem on the Linux HCL, however.

Did you ever success in getting your Hayes modem to work? Do you have any advice on getting mine working?

Regards,

Thanks for the reply and the advice. I found that that is exactly my problem with this modem. I have purchased an external modem instead!

As a "newbie" myself and a complete Linux Flintstone, I am glad to have been of assistance..... but only passing on acquired knowledge from this forum. Great, isn't it....
