Hi List;

Can anyone help me figure out how to use my treo 680 as a modem?

I'm running FC5/KDE

I tried the instructions here:
http://fugutabetai.com/treo600_modem.html



I setup a new modem device in the network device config with the following
connection name: cingular
modem device : /dev/ttyUSB1
baud rate: 460800
flow control: software

phone no to call: #777
username: web
passwd: web


then I put the treo into tethered mode by dialing #*83843733
next I activated the above modem connection and I get this:

Failed to activate cingular with error 8


Thanks in advance
