Mark, scanModem recommends hsfpcimodem: Support type needed or chipset: hcfpcimodem ----------------end Softmodem section -------------- 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 The modem requires a hcflinmodem package. >From http://www.linuxant.com/drivers/hcf/full/downloads-ubuntu-x86.php download hcfpcimodem-7.68.00.12full_k2.6.27_9_generic_ubuntu_i386.deb.zip Under Linux unpack with: $ unzip hcfpcimodem*.zip Then install with: $ sudo dpkg -i hcfpcimodem*.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.
