Roy, Setserial is only cogent to Controller chip modems using the /dev/ttySn ports. It is virtually irrelevant for winmodems. After: $ sudo modprobe martian_dev start martian_modem with $ sudo martian_modem --country=us --debug=2 --log=RTlog Leave it running and in a 2nd console/Tab do the $ sudo wvdialconf /etc/wvdial.conf MarvS On Jan 24, 2008 1:31 PM, Roy Taylor <crt@xxxxxxxxxx> wrote: > Marv, Jacques, et al. -- > > Thanks for your quick response.
