Wesley, Puppy Linux has/had support for many winmodems as far as I knew. I have not kept up with newer releases, but I did know that they supported smartlink modems, intel, and others. If the modem is detected can you connect to internet from it within Puppy Linux 5.5? Regards, Antonio On Wed, Feb 4, 2015 at 3:39 PM, Wesley Tan <wrgt9740@xxxxxxxxx> wrote: > Hi Antonio! Wary Puppy Linux 5.5 was able to detect the modem. Is it because the kernel version loaded is 2.6.32.59? If so, then will previous versions of Ubuntu or Linux Mint with kernel 2.6.32 work? Or just kernel 2.6? > > Wesley > > > > > On Tuesday, February 3, 2015 11:33 AM, Wesley Tan <wrgt9740@xxxxxxxxx> wrote: > > > > I see.
