Dante, RE: I inserted the "Detect Carrier = 0" line into should be Carrier Check = 0 Before trying a dialout, do an # ifconfig If there are any COMM blocks shown except loopback (lo), such as eth0, do # ifconfig eth0 down or usages of DNS for other COMM channels will be attempted and this will not work. Check with # ifconfig before dialing. It may be necessary to use the Control Center to shutdown other COMM channels. Also with /etc/ppp/options , a line may be needed: usepeerdns MarvS On 4/12/07, Jacques Goldberg <Jacques.Goldberg@xxxxxxx> wrote:
Dante, Are you using an other kind of connection (Ethernet, ADSL, IrDA,..) at the same time? You can see this by typing /sbin/ifconfig which should not contain blocks such as eth0 If there is such a block, use /sbin/ifconfig eth0 down to get rid ot it. Also, see in /etc/wvdial.conf if you have a line Auto Dns = yes and if not, add one and try again. It would be great if you could open a third terminal. Then, right after wvdial has displayed DNS's, just give these two commands: /sbin/ifconfig > mybug3.txt /sbin/route -n >> mybug3.txt (note 2 >> in this one) and send mybug3.txt Cheers Jacques Dante ZePasta wrote: > Okay, per Jacques' suggestions, I used wvdial to try > to connect to my ISP (which is BruinOnline).
