Patrick,
Thought for a moment that your Modem was a Serial Modem, that would be supported through the native serial driver. It might turn out to be a "WinModem" for which I would recommend downloading scanModem script by Marvin Stodlsky
http://linmodems.technion.ac.il/packages/scanModem.gz
copy it to your linux partition/desktop
run
$ gunzip scanModem.gz
$ chmod +x scanModem
$ su -
passwd:
change to the directory where scanModem file is at and run
# ./scanModem
it will create a folder named Modem/ with some information. Send me the file ModemData.txt to me (offlist prefered, since some folks on the list might be offended) and I can help out determine which driver you may use to get online.
Regards,
Antonio
