Been so long, I can't remember exactly. Do remember the agony of installing the Winmodem when I bought my first Linux(Red Hat 9). If your computer is finding your modem on boot, that's the hard part. Enter KPPP setup (or the Gnome version, GPPP) in a browser and look at the many links. This is one of those amazingly easy, once you figure it out, but extemely frustrating till do, things about Linux. You may have to do some changing around till you get it just right(or not). You WILL need the alpha-numeric ID and password your ISP supplied you. Post back with any questions. chuck
