I hope that the modem is not a difficult one and that we can help get you online with Fedora. If it is a cell phone that you will use as a modem, then you may safely run from a terminal $ su - passwd: # wvdialconf /etc/wvdial.conf and it will scan for modem ports and may find one like at /dev/ttyUSB0, or /dev/ttyACM0 or something related. Then you may edit the /etc/wvdial.conf file as root add your username, password and ISP's phone number and get connected. Hope this helps, Antonio -- fedora-list mailing list fedora-list@xxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Communicate/MailingListGuidelines
