\begin{wvdial.conf} So then I tried this: [Dialer Defaults] Init1 = ATZ Init2 = ATQ0 V1 E1 S0=0 &C1 &D2 +FCLASS=0 Modem Type = Analog Modem Baud = 460800 Modem = /dev/ttySL0 ISDN = 0 Phone = 7054579564 Password = XXXXXXXX Username = XXXXXXXX@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx #this information I obtained by logging into irc and evaluating my personal information. Thought I would give it a try. Carrier Check = no \end{wvdial.conf} Modify the following line Init2 = ATQ0 V1 E1 S0=0 &C1 &D2 +FCLASS=0 change it to Init2 = ATQ0 V1 E1 S0=0 X3 &C1 &D2 +MS=90 or Init2 = ATQ0 V1 E1 S0=0 X3 &C1 &D2 +MS=34 and hope that does it. Otherwise please report back to the list.
