I'm having problems with an USB ADSL modem (Alcatel Speed Touch). It is recognized at boot time, but when I try to connect, it tells me that the modem is busy. I symlinked /dev/cuaa3 to /dev/ugen1 (that's the device that showed up in the boot messages) and directed the kppp utility to use /dev/cuaa3. I entered all the information it asked me for, and then I got the error message: Modem is busy. My ISP told me to f*** off and get Windoze. Anything else is unsupported.
Is it a hardware problem or a classical case of a dumb user? I'm not unexperienced with Ethernet connections, and I have a great knowledge of the TCP/IP standard, but I have never done anything with modems, so I can't even imagine how this stuff works.
