You need to install the "NIE Modem-Serial Support.pkg" file onto your Newt
(off the Newton Internet Enabler CD or image).
When I brainwiped my 2100 and reinstalled NIE, I only installed the ethernet
package since I had a wifi card but didn't have a modem. Later on when I
bought a serial cable to connect it to my cell phone, I was puzzled over the
same question until I went rummaging through the NIE CD for help and found
this package which I hadn't installed.
Download and install the two packages here, and you should be all set..
