5. Plug the power cord of the modem into an AC outlet, and turn the power
switch to the On position.
6. Define the modem to your system.
After connecting and powering up the modem, you must inform your
system about the new device. The device driver needs to know where to
send the data that travels over the telephone lines.
To do so, add an entry for the new modem to the
/etc/remote

To edit these files, you must be superuser.
