Hi,

I'm able to configure my modem. The following is what I did. 
1.rp3-config to configure my modem sucessfully
2. ln -sf /dev/ttyS3/dev/modem according to the result from rp3-config 
3. minicom which allow me to connect to BOL by doing Ctrl-A D. 

But the problem is, although I can connect to BOL, I can only use the
network inside that terminal such as telnet and I cannot use browser at
all. Do I need to do something else to configure the browser(netscape) in
order to browse the internet?

Also, although I use Ctrl-A H to hang up and the connection was able to be
dropped, when I use minicom again, the error msg says that /dev/modem is
locked.

Thanks a lot.

Ming
