In Windows the modem shows up as Agere HDA Modem. I am able to get slmodemd (slmodemd -c USA --alsa hw:0,6) to run and I can get wvdial to dial out correctly (i.e. I tried calling my cell phone and the modem does dial) but when it tries to connect to an ISP I get: [root@bill Modem]# wvdial --> WvDial: Internet dialer version 1.54.0 --> Cannot get information for serial port. --> Initializing modem. --> Sending: ATZ ATZ OK --> Sending: ATM1L3Q0 V1 E1 S0=0 &C1 &D2 +FCLASS=0 ATM1L3Q0 V1 E1 S0=0 &C1 &D2 +FCLASS=0 OK --> Modem initialized. --> Sending: ATDT8,1,XXXXXXX (my ISP number) --> Waiting for carrier.

Trying again. --> Sending: ATDT8,1,XXXXXXX (my ISP number) --> Waiting for carrier. NO CARRIER I was unable to get slamr and ungrab-winmodem installed! Does anyone have an RPM? I tried downloading the files from http://linmodems.technion.ac.il/packages/smartlink/ but was unable to compile them. I'm also not quite sure if I need them to run. My wvdial.conf has Carrier check = no and I've toggled Stupid Mode on\off. I have snd-intel8x0m module loaded correctly (I've also tried loading\unloading. =====Contents of ModemData.txt====== Only plain text email is forwarded by the DISCUSS@xxxxxxxxxxxxx List Server.
