Hasham, Sorry if I sounded harsh :( I only have written instructions for installing the modem driver. To test it, after it successfully installed, Let's say you got to run $ make clean $ make $ su -c 'make install' and it succeeded, you would have to load the modem driver and I since I have not run that specific case(modem), I have run the 11c1:0620(30) modems using the other agrsm modem package, you would run $ su - passwd: # modprobe agrmodem # sudo modprobe agrserial and then run # agrmodemdaemon which may reside in /etc/rc.d/init.d/, depending on where it installed successfully or not then run # sudo wvdialconf /etc/wvdial.conf to see if wvdialconf finds the modem port which should point to /dev/ttyAGR or to /dev/modem if it is symlinked by init scripts? I have not tried the 048 case since I do not have that modem in particular. Please see this thread it may help: http://permalink.gmane.org/gmane.linux.linmodem/28856 > Thanks again Antonio I believe that I installed it correctly after changing > kernel-headers and kernel-devel but I don't know how to test the modem and > please accept my apology for wasting your time You are not wasting my time, We are volunteers and our task is to help folks out there use Linux and be able to connect to the internet with the winmodems whenever possible. Hope that we can help achieve success with this modem. Please let us (list discuss@xxxxxxxxxxxxx) know if something worked/not worked and if you need further help. Someone may have found a better way to get this modem working in an easier fashion.
