I've got a Wytek 56k USB Modem (a bad usb winmodem!!)
The Chipset is a SGS Thompson Microelettronics 56k SoftModem as show lsusb:

Bus 003 Device 002: ID 0483:7554 SGS Thomson Microelectronics 56k SoftModem

This modem is not officialy supported...but MAYBE is possible to make it works with driver produced by www.smlink.com for linux
I found this driver here: http://www.aztech.com/driver/modem_um9800.htm

I've installed this drivers and now I have:

#dmesg | grep modem

acm.c: v0.21:USB Abstract Control Model driver for USB modems and ISDN adapters
ttySL0: st7554 modem

I understand that a st7554 modem is founded!! The above output of lsusb shows a device with id 7554!!



My Problem now is to dial with modem to verify it it works good!!

I linked /dev/modem to /dev/ttySL0
I tried minicom but seem to doesn't work!!

Someone should help me to verify if my modem works??

You don't say what distro you are using, but if you have devfs setup try looking under /dev/usb/. Usb devices will be created under here, probably in a fairly logical place.

If you find a device that looks like your modem (serial or modem) just link this to /dev/modem and everything should be fine!

I'm using Slackware 9.0 and I'm not using devfs!
The sl driver creates a ttySL0 device to comunicate with modem!
I've just linked it to dev/modem

My problem is to try to connect to it....
Tnx

i desconnected my modem from my linux without
shutting down the machine to try it in another pc.

i pluged it back and restart linux but i does not work now,


any help
