Hi, I have a RH9 running on my workstation and I tried to seup a modem
connection to my ISP. Whenever I connect to my ISP it is unsuccessful.
therefore I use the command tail to see trace the log. the following is my
log:

I like to know why LCP is timeout and my NET unregister event not
supported. Can someone assist me in this. thank you.

Hi,

I have checked my UART and it uses 16550A.
I am currently using US robotics 56K voice fax modem.

I have followed your instruction and log LCP messages..

I am new to linux and really have no idea what the above log mean..
