Hi Im running slackware current and having a lot of fun with a usb modem...
actually its my cellphone....i use the acm module and its linked to
/dev/modem.....
i am trying to dial up to arczip or netzero....arczip works kinda...
i have to use minicom or xisp to make a connection nothing else will
dial my modem(cellphone)
i use xisp to dial out.... i get my ip address and ppp0 is up ...
the problem i get is that i hav a lan hooked to this laptop
too...192.168.0.2

i cannot ping anything www.google.ca or my server 64.59.X.X
the ping error i get is ping from 192.168.0.2 destination unreachable
i beleive its a routing problem because it appears its trying to use the
lan to connect .... mabie its in my options file i dono
any help would be great
thanks
p.s i use the dial up tenique because the cell company charges 100 a
month for this internet dial up is only 10 -20 a month

Perfect I figured it all out
I redited /etc/resolv.conf and added search arczip.com and nameservers
+route del default
route add default dev ppp0
then ping www.google.ca
nice dialup from my cellphone to my linux laptop....

Better yet, just stop posting altogether.
