dialup using modem

[Claude Jones]

Philippe: Somehow, I'm missing a step. I too can connect via the Network  
Device Control window by clicking on 'activate'. I added the modem-lights  
applet to my panel, but it doesn't work. I've read the all the  
documentation and tried various settings, but it just doesn't work. It  
will start the dialogue connect/cancel when I click on it, but it never  
connects, nor do any of the lights come on. One weird thing is that in my  
Network Device Control settings, under settings for the hardware, the  
modem shows up as ttyS4 -- if I boot into Windows, the modem shows up as  
Com4 which should correlate to ttyS3, according to what I've read. Any  
further thoughts?
