Hi, I have installed Fedora core 3 on my system.I have Dlink's DFM-560ES external analog modem.I am not able to install it.Plz help.
I browsed thru help pages and to know no entry of 'hosts' file is present in network configuration(they have told u need the default one-127.0.0.1)I looked thru /etc/hosts.conf file (order hosts,bind) and /etc/hosts file(127.0.0.1 localhost.localdomain localhost) having the entries typed in brackets.I dont know if this relavent here but those had mention on help pages)
when i select dev/modem it does nothing but if i select the entry just next to it(i cant recall it) it does try to dial the modem with wierd noises.I tries with all sets of modems types available and used to get failed to connect error2,6,8 either of these.
Plz help. Rajev
Please make sure the modem is set up properly first:

Then look at ways to dial into your ISP:

If you still aren't getting anywhere, please post back to the list with the things you tried and what went wrong.
