I have a system that needs to use a modem for Internet access. I've tried just about everything I can think of to get the modem to be seen and have had no luck so far. I've actually used two different internal modems (these are NOT Winmodems) with absolutely no luck!
1. Can you see the modem in or on /dev/ttyS?
2. Can you talk to it with minicom?
And by the way NetworkManager seems to be thoroughly clueless when it comes to traditional dialup modems. What gives?
I set up an USB EVDO modem a short while back and Network Manager worked very well with it.
