To find out which serial port your modem is connected to try: echo "atz" > /dev/ttyS0 (com 1) or echo "atz" > /dev/ttyS1 (com 2) You should see the lights on the modem flicker slightly with the correct above command. Remember which device you got a responce. In the /dev directory see if /dev/modem is soft linked to your device. Make sure you have the ppp packages installed on your machine. The network configuration tool has a method of setting up a modem or just redhat-config-network. Select New and select Modem. Configure the modem and a provider.
