PCMCIA Modem



Hi, fellow Linuxers (so to speak.)
 
I have a problem with PCMCIA Modem. It wont connect to my ISP.
 
My configuration is Pentium 120, 16Mb RAM.
Modem: ActionTec 33.6 Datalink. 
Linux: Slackware 3.4. 
 
I already upgraded PCMCIA to the latest 3.0.5 (I think.)
I use PPPSetup to configure my pppd. It's a nice script that everybody likes.
 
When I try to dial (ppp-go), It has trouble initiating the modem. Now, in windows it has 's11=50' as Init String. I put that too and managed to get it to weekly dial. But again it wouldn't connect me. I read at PCMCIA FAQ that it maybe because of IRQ problem. So I reconfigured PCMCIA to be on IRQ 12. It was on 3. No effect. No change at all.
 
HELP :-))
 
I fu@#ed with this laptop for 6 (!) hours and I managed doing nothing (besides headache).
 
Sincerely,
        Alon Kobets.
