Figure 17.4 Modem Configuration
If you are 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 Enable Device Control for Non-root User via
Kinternet. 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. 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.
