Re: Modem not working

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



mhdaya,

You have two different modem types.
Both are sharing resources with the USB support systems.
It is advisable that you detach the USB devices while testing the modem.

To begin, please detach the USB devices, rerun
$ sudo ./scanModem
send us the new ModemData.txt

Also please join the List using the SUBSCRIBE link at http://www.linmodems.org
so that your messages do not have to be manually approved.
