hi all,

i was wondering if you could help me - my conexant modem has decided to stop working in linux after a Slackware 11 reinstall. the drivers installs and works fine, but after dialling the phone number, the modem makes the usual noises but gets stuck about halfway through, and then stops after about a minute with the message "NO CARRIER". i've tried different init strings and wvdial/kppp settings, and the modem works fine in windows, so i can't figure out what the problem is.

any ideas?

have your modem support for PPPoE or something like that? Whats the modem model? Im using slackware and i think i had same problem a long time ago and i solved it with other device, /dev/eth1 instead of /dev/eth0 and usually i use /sbin/dhcpcd -d -t 60 eth1 to set up my internet.
