What linux distribution (e.g. Mandrake, Red Hat, Fedora, Slackware, Ubuntu, etc.) do you have?

your modem should be reported as a serial port (/dev/ttySx)... install kppp if you can... and run it, configure your modem and connection (try different serial ports, and see if it work)...
good luck

sorry..no modem detected by kppp...
