You should be able to. Did you invoke pon ? did you press the button of
your modem ? (yes some forget to push the button) can you see the light
on it ? is it a serial modem ? which brand/model ?
Do you belong to the dialout group ?

Joyce,
No, I didn't invoke pon. How do I do that? The modem light is on. It's a serial modem, but the pppconfig didn't detect it and went to manual. At the manual setting, it had ttyS1 already listed, and I went with that. Maybe it's on ttyS0? It's a US Robotics and works just great on any other Linux OS I've used with it.
Do I belong to the dialout group? What's that? I said I'm new to Ubuntu. (I'm used to KDE, not Gnome.)
