elektronist Posted February 5, 2003 Report Share Posted February 5, 2003 Hi eisi, as root make this link ln -s /dev/usb/acm/0 /dev/modem chmod 755 /dev/modem and use /dev/modem in kppp. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Counterspy Posted March 1, 2003 Report Share Posted March 1, 2003 It seems like it is not seeing the correct usb port. You can set this in KPPP. you may need to experiment with several different ports before you land on the right one. Counterspy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
elektronist Posted March 2, 2003 Report Share Posted March 2, 2003 Hi wim, if you queried modem in kppp and result is ok, but you get modem busy message when you click on connect please check on Show Log Window in kppp before click connect. When you click connect button, a log window should be opened. If not, click Log button on this connection window. Strange but works. :) Good luck!
