Felix, The modem setup is OK as far as you have gone with> sudo slmodemd -c USA --alsa -s hw:0,1 But to continue, open a 2nd console and$ sudo wvdialconf /etc/wvdial.confwhich should report finding the modem and write /etc/wvdial.conf Do an edit with$ sudo gedit /etc/wvdial.confputting in your personal information and adding a line Carrier Check = no See the wvdial.txt sample in the SLMODEMD.gcc4.1/ folder With /etc/wvdial.conf completed, try a dialout with:$ sudo wvdial The slmodemd must be ket running during a dialout session.
