Anomit, Support type needed or chipset: hsfmodem Formal support for Conexant chipset modems are available ONLY through http://www.linuxant.com/drivers. Read Conexant.txt for details. and Modem/YourSystem.txt for follow through guidance. Driver speed is limited to 14,400 until a key is purchased. There is NO freeware alternative. There are two support package types: hsfmodem and hcflinmodem. http://www.lorenzobettini.it/linux/LinuxSonyVaioVGN-S5VP_B reports a problem and solution in stalling a key, after testing of the free low speed download. The hsfmodem package serves a great variety of Conexant chipset modems. From http://www.linuxant.com/drivers/hsf/full/downloads-ubuntu-x86.php download hsfmodem_VersionSpec_k2.6.17_10_generic_ubuntu_i386.deb.zip with 2.6.17_10_generic equivalent to 2.6.17-10-generic, your kernel version. Under Linux unpack with: $ unzip hsfmodem*.zip Then install with: $ sudo dpkg -i hsfmodem*.deb Subsequently, the modem should be found with $ sudo wvdialconf /etc/wvdial.conf Edit in your personal information with: $ sudo gedit /etc/wvdial.conf and try dialing out with: $ sudo wvdial. See Testing.txt for details.
