bro , are u sure that modem is supported by linux? i went to to http://www.genius-europe.com/english/index.htm and they didnt mention that this modem is supported ...
if u can get any external modem and asure u they will work....
plus get a network card that supprted by linux such as d-link 528 tx, planet pci bus,or anyone that support linux.
the pci that i have dosn't have a driver for linux it's just that the OS can see the card plus that there are lots of people useing thes card for linux so i dont know how ?

the speedStreem 4020 ADSL USB Modem and the speedStreem 4060 ADSL USB Modem
and thay bothe did not work with the linux os so what do i have to do to make it work ??
hi bro.
i use adsl but i use extarnal modem "ARESCOM"
which i hadnt any problem at all and i never used pci modem niether usb modems, the external is so easy just u have to deal with the ethernet card..
sorry for not helping u :/
hi ,
bro extarnal modem dosnt mean USB, external are those that are can be connected to the net work card"ethernet" , usb is different and it need a driver to be installed, but the real external doesnt need any driver and has no releation with the OS....
the only usb modem that will work with linux as far as i know is aLCATEL usb modems..
but external always are better..
