Re: modem problem

Ariel,

You appear two modems that are supported by hsfmodem

Support type needed or chipset:    hsfmodem


For owners of a Dell PCs with Conexant HSF modems, a driver source 
package with full speed enabled is available, but requires driver 
compiling. Read DOCs/Conexant.txt

 From  http://www.linuxant.com/drivers/hsf/full/downloads-ubuntu-x86.php
 download hsfmodem-7.68.00.12full_k2.6.24_19_generic_ubuntu_i386.deb.zip
 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 DOCs/Testing.txt  for details.
 
 Read DOCs/Conexant.txt

If the above advice fails, it has to do with

If that is the case send us the dmesg.txt to us.
