If it's not, then you just stick it into the computer (ISA card? PnP modem, maybe?), go to Windows and get teh settings, like DMA, IRQ, Com port. Then come back to Linux and either : 1. If just a plain serial modem (doubt that, though), you can run pppconfig and direct the ppp to right Com port. (Com1 is /dev/ttyS0, Com2 is /dev/ttyS1 and so on). 2. If pnp modem, use isapnp to initialize the modem and then use pppconfig. Or I prefer to use wvdial to initialize modem. It provides better explanations and access, somewhat.
