Now, I know for sure that it is not Kppp's fault for not dialing. Also wvdial fails at dialing :( It finds the modem, but does not dialout. I will give a try to martian code also and see if works over there as well. root@slax:/etc# cat wvdial.conf [Dialer Defaults] Init1 = ATZ Init2 = ATQ0 V1 E1 S0=0 X3 &C1 &D2 +MS=90 Modem Type = Analog Modem Phone = 7072000 ISDN = 0 Username = myusername ; Init1 = ATZ Password = XXXXXXX Modem = /dev/ttySL0 Baud = 460800 root@slax:/etc# wvdial --> WvDial: Internet dialer version 1.60 --> Cannot get information for serial port. --> Initializing modem. --> Sending: ATZ ATZ OK --> Sending: ATQ0 V1 E1 S0=0 X3 &C1 &D2 +MS=90 ATQ0 V1 E1 S0=0 X3 &C1 &D2 +MS=90 OK --> Modem initialized. --> Sending: ATDT7072000 --> Waiting for carrier.
