I'm totaly new to linux, but a friend that is more experienced in FreeBDS had a look at it without beeing able to solve the problem.
Since the replies I got yesterday I have reinstalled RH 7.1 (and all the packages) to make sure that nothing is missing.
When Linux starts it query the modem (I could see the lights flashing). After that i started the netcfg (mabey unneccesary if Linux already has detected the modem). After that I ran the "Internet Conector" in Gnome, to set up the account. After that when I tred to conect through RHppp there was an error but I cat exactly recall what it was now. Any way, after that I tried to run wvdialer. It sent some AT commands to the modem but the modem never uhooked or dialed any number and then it returned invalid phonenumber, invalid password, invalid username. After this I erased the AT commands and put in ATW ATD [number] and now it unhooks, dials the number but unconects immediatly without waiting for any kind of answer.

I'm not sure if ay of this makes you ay wiser but hopefully it will.

Best regards!
