Bob, The residual problem seems to be Password acceptance.Check that you are using the write capitalization in the password, asit is case sensitive.Not sure it makes a difference but for:$ sudo wvdial -C wvdial.bcooperthe recommended syntax is:$ sudo wvdial -c wvdial.bcooper wvdial does all the negotiation.Nothing manual is needed if the wvdial.bcooper (or /etc/wvdial/conf)info is correct.
