----- Original Message ---- From: Emanuele Pagone <epagone@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> To: Marvin Stodolsky <marvin.stodolsky@xxxxxxxxx> Cc: discuss@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Sent: Thursday, April 10, 2008 6:01:08 PM Subject: Re: Emanuele, Italy kernel 2.6.22-14-generic Thanks for the help, but I'm still having problems. I edited wvdial.conf and sl-modem-daemon as Marvin said, then I typed: > emanuele@emanuele-desktop:~$ ls -l /dev/ttySL0 /dev/pts/* > crw-rw---- 1 root uucp 136, 0 2008-04-10 23:08 /dev/pts/0 > crw--w---- 1 emanuele tty 136, 1 2008-04-10 23:31 /dev/pts/1 > lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 10 2008-04-10 23:08 /dev/ttySL0 -> /dev/pts/0 all seemed right. Unfortunately, when I made: > emanuele@emanuele-desktop:~$ sudo wvdial > WvDial<*1>: WvDial: Internet dialer version 1.56 > WvModem<*1>: Cannot get information for serial port. > WvDial<*1>: Initializing modem. > WvDial<*1>: Sending: ATZ > WvDial Modem<*1>: ATZ > WvDial Modem<*1>: OK > WvDial<*1>: Sending: ATQ0 V1 E1 S0=0 X3 &C1 &D2 +FCLASS=0 > WvDial Modem<*1>: ATQ0 V1 E1 S0=0 X3 &C1 &D2 +FCLASS=0 > WvDial Modem<*1>: OK > WvDial<*1>: Modem initialized. > WvDial<*1>: Sending: ATDT0803761010 > WvDial<*1>: Waiting for carrier. > WvDial Modem<*1>: ATDT0803761010 > WvDial Modem<*1>: NO DIALTONE > WvDial<Err>: No dial tone. > WvDial<*1>: Disconnecting at Thu Apr 10 23:43:44 2008 I got a "NO DIALTONE" message. This is my wvdial.conf: > emanuele@emanuele-desktop:~$ cat /etc/wvdial.conf > > [Dialer Defaults] > Init1 = ATZ > Init2 = ATQ0 V1 E1 S0=0 X3 &C1 &D2 +FCLASS=0 Change this +FCLASS=0 to +MS=90 or +MS=34 and try the process again. Maybe that is what you need. Hope this helps, Antonio > ; Init3 = ATM0 > Modem Type = Analog Modem > Baud = 460800 > New PPPD = yes > Modem = /dev/ttySL0 > ISDN = 0 > Phone = 0803761010 > Username = REMOVED > Password = REMOVED > Carrier Check = no > ; Stupid Mode = yes I removed my username and password. About the phone number, the first digit '0' is the first part of a regional area code (I'm not passing through a switchboard to make a call): under Ms Windows, the modem works perfectly using that number. I have also an ethernet card in my computer so, following what's suggested in the "YourSystem.txt", I disconnected the RJ-45 cable and I made: > emanuele@emanuele-desktop:~/Modem$ sudo ifconfig eth0 down > emanuele@emanuele-desktop:~/Modem$ ifconfig > lo Link encap:Local Loopback > inet addr:127.0.0.1 Mask:255.0.0.0 > inet6 addr: ::1/128 Scope:Host > UP LOOPBACK RUNNING MTU:16436 Metric:1 > RX packets:0 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0 > TX packets:0 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0 > collisions:0 txqueuelen:0 > RX bytes:0 (0.0 b) TX bytes:0 (0.0 b) Nothing changed. I also tried to remove the X3 command from the Init2 string, but the result it's just the same: "NO DIALTONE". What's wrong? Thank you.
