LT Win Modem not working

[frednet]

The output of dmesg reports
isapnp: Card 'LT Win Modem'
but I don't know what to do next to enable it!
Is there another package I need to install?

Re: LT Win Modem not working

this is a little howto I wrote for my ancient TP 600E which has an mwave modem - it works for a lot of soft modems but not sure about LT Win modem mileage...

$ apt-get install mwavem
2 if you have not got the right repositories enabled please copy my SourcesList file
3 add the following to your /etc/modprobe.d/options

#mwave modem module options
options mwave mwave_3780i_irq=10 mwave_3780i_io=0x0130 mwave_uart_irq=3 mwave_uart_io=0x2f8

4 add the following to your /etc/pcmcia/config.opts

#PCMCIA IRQ conflicts with the modem without this
exclude irq 3
exclude irq 10

5 add the following to your /etc/modules

mwave

6 change the following in your /usr/local/etc/mwavem.conf

DEVICE=/dev/modems/mwave

to

DEVICE=/dev/mwave

7 adapt the same file to your country by changing

COUNTRY=1

to whatever your country is, 44 in the case of the United Kingdom, 49 for Germany, etc.
8 Install KPPP (if you don't have it already) and try to talk to the modem. If it does not work, reboot and try again. If it still does not work, open a console and type
$ sudo mwavem
Now it will definitely work! Have fun on the road...
