This is correct. Use ttyS1 not modem. > Sorry - this system lacks PPP kernel support This means the module wasn't loaded, I'm guessing. When you did the driver installation did you include ppp and TCP/IP modules? > According to DSELECT... PPP has been installed. what gives? > 72/73, dselect only tells you the software that is on, or not on, your hard drive. It has no idea if it's in your kernel. Also, this ppp is pppd, the daemon needed to use the ppp protocol over a link. The kernel needs to have ppp capabilities either compiled in or installed via module to utilize the pppd daemon and vise-versa. I hope this helps.
