I have bought a US Robotics 56k faxmodem yesterday, I plug it into the
power source, I connected it to COM1 and thats it! :) I am using it to
connect to my University computer in order to read the mail...

$ pon        (pppd on)
$ telnet ... (or other net-commands)
$ poff       (pppd off)

You must have.

i) A kernel with ppp support

$ dmesg
...
PPP: version 2.3.3 (demand dialling)
TCP compression code copyright 1989 Regents of the University of California
PPP line discipline registered.
...

ii) Configure ppp

$ pppconfig

iii) Nothing more :)
