Hello, I got myself a replacement for the previous modem. This is Ace (Wipro) internal modem with Conexant chipset. I'd the impression that it would work out of the box. But it didn't. As I have only 1 serial port, I assumed the internal modem will be on /dev/ttyS1 (com 2 port), is'nt that right ? I use Kppp, it detects the modem on /dev/ttyS1 (it also detects a modem on /dev/ttyS0 !) but the ATI fiels are blank. The modem straight away goes into 'initializing modem' phase upon 'Connect'ing. Could you please help ?
