I have always used my Fedora 2 laptop on my DSL connection at home. Now that I am traveling, I need to setup a dial up connection, but I am having a couple of issues.
I have an IBM T23 with an internal win modem, but I am using a PCMCIA modem that is compatible with Linux. After I setup everything through system-config-network and try to activate it, I get the following:
Failed to activate net with error 8
I have tried searching the archives, but I couldn't find anything similar to the error I am getting. Any suggestions?
Thanks!
Chris
Have you tried speaking directly to the modem through something like minicom?
BTW, www.tldp.org have excellent documentation on modem and ISP hook-up.
