**** Problem Solved ******

I downloaded the wvdial package of mydsl
and install it, though it took me a while figuring how to run it through command line and editing the configuration file.

it did work, it seamlessly detect my modem.

in fact i am posting this message through dsl with dialup connection.

truly,

with small things comes great power.....
