Originally posted by poliux It just doesn't work with kernel 2.6 - smp (It does work without smp) Is there a way to set it for smp?
compile your own kernel for smp based on the source that the crappy linuxant driver requires. Then, you'll have smp and your odem working. If you still have trouble, I'll sell you a 56k external hardware modem at a reasonably price.......
If you check on the conexant site, there IS a link to Linuxant, so please don't blame them before checking the Conexant site entirely.
If this will be my machine, I will probably buy the driver. However I read on some other posts that hardware modems only cost $15, so I guess it's not worth it
I did installed the free 14.4 driver, and after I 'successfully' connect to the internet, I can't do nothing on the net.
No bytes are transmitted what so ever
Any suggestions?
I haven't heard of a single guy at LinuxQuestion that has a AC 97 Soft-Link Voice Modem working
Hi,
If you are having trouble navigating an you see the lights of your modem monitor that are not blinking (no bytes transmitted), it could be you network configuration, you should remove any configured gateways on your Ethernet cards, you can test this by stopping the network service: /etc/init.d/network stop and then connect to the Internet with the modem. It should work.
If it does, it's because you probably have to change your network configuration.
