Topic: Modem Dialing

[Jamie Nicholls]

I'm new to linux and have just installed E-Smith 5.1.2 to act as a gateway to share internet access to 2 other computers using WINME and one using XPHOME

When E-smith starts to dial the connection, I get a dial tone and a lot of beeps but I can't hear any numbers being dialed.  For some reason its just not dialing the numbers.

I have tried using init strings, but to no avail.

My modem is a 56K V.90 Speed Demon External

Thanks in Advance
