I'm confused. Where physically is the modem? Internal? And you still
have a printer & modem port coming out the back of the computer??

It seems strange to me that the modem would be hooked up to the printer
port, unless you have connected it that way. If you have, then you
have to tell pppd to use tty01 instead of tty00.
