A few months ago, I installed F8 and tried to set it up for dial-up. I couldn't get it to connect (perhaps there were some problems with the install).Do you have any other network interfaces? You might want to check the default route to make sure it is through the PPP interface when dialup is active. If you have a default route set, then it is probably not going to be changed when the PPP connection comes up. I know that used to be the case, but I have not checked it in the last couple of versions. (I don't use dialup often.)So, I re-installed F8 (formatted /, but left /home intact). I'm _still_ have problems - and it seems to be the same issue.I had to modify wvdial.conf to get even this far (wvdial flat out refused to work with the default, as configged by Admin > Network).[Modem0] Modem = /dev/ttyS1 Baud = 115200 SetVolume = 4 Dial Command = ATDT Init1 = ATZ Init3 = ATM1L4 FlowControl = CRTSCTS [Dialer enternet] Area Code = ### Username = mpk2 Password = ****** Phone = ####### Stupid Mode = 1 Init1 = ATZ Init2 = ATQ0 V1 E1 S0=0 &C1 &D2 +FCLASS=0 Inherits = Modem0 Here is output (bad characters removed): [root@localhost etc]# wvdial --> WvDial: Internet dialer version 1.60 --> Initializing modem. --> Sending: ATZ ATZ OK --> Sending: ATQ0 V1 E1 S0=0 &C1 &D2 +FCLASS=0 ATQ0 V1 E1 S0=0 &C1 &D2 +FCLASS=0 OK --> Sending: ATM1L3 ATM1L3 OK --> Modem initialized. --> Sending: ATDT########## --> Waiting for carrier.

BUT, I can't do anything! (Actually, it will ping, but no www access.)Network apparently has a problem with the setup - I activate the dialup config, and somehow it gets deactivated.What's going on?
If you can ping by IP address, but not host name, then check /etc/resolv.conf to make sure the name servers are being updated.
