I am trying to use a brand new SupraExpress 56i Internal modem with
slackware. Yesterday, everything was working fine with my PPP connection
with my ISP and my old 33,600 modem. However with this new modem I am
experiencing difficulties. Suprisingly, it does dial okay. It just never
initializes the PPP connection. So I decided to dial into one of the
non-56k (K56Flex Protocol) my ISP has and I got connected, just at a
painfully slow speed...we're talking like 300bps here, and I got
disconnected after about five minutes. Well anyways...now I cannot attain a
PPP connection. 
Also, just in case you are wondering. It's not my modem or ISP, because I
am able to connect using NT or 95 on the same computer at some incredible
speeds. What gives?
