Thanks for yr help, I tried this but and when I query the modem in KPPP I get an error that the modem is busy! I believe the real issue is in loading the appropirate module for USR external modem?Any suggestions abt where will I find the module?Its supposed to be PnP which means that the kernel loads the module when it boots but in this case I dont see that. Pls advice, my understanding is limited.
