Ivan, All your setup seems OK except for modems using /dev/pts/N ports, it is necessary to use the Carrier Check = no I presume a trial like # wvdialconf wvtest does report finding the modem. You can copy the slmodemd to /usr/sbin/slmodemd, followed by # chmod +x /usr/sbin/slmodemd putting on the command PATH. so that it can be called simply with # slmodemd -c BRAZIL --alsa hw:0,6 Between trials stop wvdial with Ctrl-C stop slmodemd Ctr-C Unload and reload the driver if possible: # modprobe -r snd-intel8x0m # modprobe r snd-intel8x0m Certainly testging a home phone number is a good test.
