Hi!
Many modems are detected automatically (e.g. Huawei) and you don't need to install extra software - starting the networkmanager - with your input - configures the modem. To see if it is recognized: Terminal / Konsole: Code:

At first, if you need urgent help you should pay someone for support.
To your problem: Some USB wireless devices have a modeswitch function. If you plug them into a computer they will behave like a CD-drive, so that the (Windows) user can install the drivers from that virtual CD. After that they switch to their real purpose. You may want to have a look at the usb-modeswitch program, that can switch to from CD mode to wireless mode. After that we will see if it works out of the box or if additional software is needed. |

You are aware that fedora 13 is DEAD . There has been no support for it for about a month now . There will NEVER be any updates to it . no bug or security fixes .NO new programs.NO updates so that new programs can run on it . NO nothing . fedora releases a NEW and sometimes VERY different version every 6 months the current is fedora 15 see http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Fedora_Release_Life_Cycle |
