dialup networking

[Garrett Klein]

I have one of those in my compaq, go to www.linuxant.com to get drivers for
it, most likely the HCF drivers (email me at garrettklein at hotmail .com or
kleins at iquest.net if you need more info about this, as you have to buy
license keys for full 56K access and such). BTW, I've never used wvdial, I
just used pppsetup and it used the /dev/modem link to /dev/ttyShcf0.

HTH,
Garrett
