Setup kppp, with modem at ttyS1 or ttyS2. Make IP Dynamic, Gateway default, DNS Automatic. Conection speed not more than 115200.

Yes, but where do I start this configuration ?
Thanks

I don't have K 4.0 DVD. I still beleive it is same way as in other versions of Knoppix: K -> Internet -> kppp or something like that. You must find kppp. Go through all menus in K, it will be very good for you, not only to find kppp, but for many other things as well.

I am glad to hear we can connect to the Net with the Knoppix live DVD and even with the previous live CD !

Hey, I want to do the same with an internal modem, A dlink DFM562IS. No. Your modem is http://www.dlink.com.au/products/modems/dfm562is/DFM-562IS.pdf software modem, this is diferent from external [serial?] modem. You need drivers for software modems.

Sorry, it is not ttyS1 but S0.
