Figure 30.4 Modem Configuration
If behind a private branch exchange (PBX), you may need to enter a dial prefix. This
is often a zero. Consult the instructions that came with the PBX to find out. Also select
whether to use tone or pulse dialing, whether the speaker should be on, and whether
the modem should wait until it detects a dial tone. The last option should not be enabled
if the modem is connected to an exchange.
Under Details, set the baud rate and the modem initialization strings. Only change these
settings if your modem was not detected automatically or if it requires special settings
for data transmission to work. This is mainly the case with ISDN terminal adapters.
Leave this dialog by clicking OK. To delegate control over the modem to the normal
user without root permissions, activate User Controlled. In this way, a user without
administrator permissions can activate or deactivate an interface. Under Dial Prefix
Regular Expression, specify a regular expression. The Dial Prefix in KInternet, which
can be modified by the normal user, must match this regular expression. If this field is
left empty, the user cannot set a different Dial Prefix without administrator permissions.
In the next dialog, select the ISP (Internet service provider). To choose from a predefined
list of ISPs operating in your country, select Country. Alternatively, click New to open
a dialog in which to provide the data for your ISP. This includes a name for the dial-up
connection and ISP as well as the login and password provided by your ISP. Enable
Always Ask for Password to be prompted for the password each time you connect.
