Mike, try to use kppp to find the modem (it was easier for me when I had thi=
s=20
problem)=2E

Open up a terminal window and type   kppp

When kppp pops up you have a choice of (quit) and (setup)
choose (setup)

Then you get a window with 6 tabs choose (device)

Then click the bar next to Modem Device: and you get a list like this
/dev/modem
/dev/ttyS0
/dev/ttyS1
/dev/ttyS2
/dev/ttyS3
/dev/ttyI0
/dev/ttyI1
/dev/ttyI2
/dev/ttyI3

click on the first one and then click on the (modem) tab

under the (modem) tab click on  Query Modem  box
and see what it says=2E
Try each one /dev/ttyS0,/dev/ttyS1, etc=2E on down the line until it=20
comunicates with the modem and gives you Query results=2E

Then go into the (Accounts) tab and click the  new  box=20
and enter your information from you ISP=2E
=20
Then click  ok  box at the bottom of the window and it will take you back to=20=

the first window which should have the  connect  box lit up click on that bo=
x=20
and your modem should dial out and try to connect=2E

Note I should say button not box   box=3Dbutton

Also make sure phone line connected to modem=20

Good luck=20
