1.) I can't configure the dial-up.--I used pppconfig to set up my connection...only when I "sudo pon provider" it just drops to the next command prompt. I have also tried activating the modem and setting the port , port 0 since I have laptop. Do i need to compile a driver for the modem??? (OSX sytem profiler calls it a MicroDash (v 92) modem...I've heard of drivers available for use @ linuxant.com) If so how can I go about this (simply put if possible)
