Connecting to the Internet via USB ADSL modem (again...)

Hi again!
I tried every tack in the book... No dice! I can't bring my laptop to acknowledge there IS an ADSL modem connected on one of my USB ports... I tried on a friend's computer (she uses a SpeedTouch modem while I've got a BeWan): no dice again... So, to summarize, booting from Knoppix on CD is well and fine, but if I'm confined to working local, what good is it?!
Somebody help me, pulleeeeeeeeeeeeeeze!

I use Kanotix (latest version BH 9A) with the Speedtouch USB modem with PPPoATM without any problems. There is a menu GUI for both PPPoATM and PPPoE. I moved to Kanotix from Knoppix for this reason.
