External modem not recognized


Posts: 1

I have "Point and Click" MEPIS installed on a ThinkPad 600E. Boots under 2.4.26 won't load 2.6. When I try to run KPPP to configure and test the modem it says modem not found. I dual boot and the modem (Creative Modem Blaster V.92) works fine under Windows. Modem is on COM1 or ttyS0. How do I get Linux to recognize the modem?

external modem

If your external modem does not require microsoft software it should work just fine . Try adjusting the connection speed to match your modem!

Good stuff here
