I configure modem to connect internet, follow next steps:

1) Kudzu detect my modem and configure

2) Run # wvdialconf /etc/wvdial.conf

3)It detect modem and create /etc/wvdial.conf

4) Add phone number, login and password
[Dialer Defaults]
Modem = /dev/ttyS1
Baud = 115200
Init1 = ATZ
Init2 = ATQ0 V1 E1 S0=0 &C1 &D2 S11=55 +FCLASS=0
; Phone =
; Username =
; Password =
Phone = number_phone
Username = login
Password = password

5) In file /etc/resolv.conf add this lines

nameserver xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx
nameserver xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx

6) Run wvdial, connection is ok

7) but, i need disable my network card to navigate in netscape

Why?

I need both (internet and local network)

Re: Problem: modem vs network card

Try adding a static route to your local network after your dial-up connects.

# route add -net xxx.xxx.xxx.0 netmask 255.255.255.0

then remove the route after you hangup the phone.
Remember, wherever you go, there you are...
