Antonio, Here is the output of wvdial.out. It doesn't seem to make any difference in using Init2 = ATQ0 V1 E1 S0=0 X3 &C1 &D2 +MS=90 or if I use Init2 = ATQ0 V1 E1 S0=0 &C1 &D2 +FCLASS=0, but more as if I get the correct modem from Copper.net to answer my dialup. If I keep trying for hours and keep checking /etc/ppp/pap-secrets and /etc/ppp/chap-secrets because once I get connected these files are changed, and then I can never get connected. wvdial.conf: [Dialer defaults] Modem = /dev/ttySL0 Auto DNS = yes Init1 = ATZ Init2 = ATQ0 V1 E1 S0=0 X3 &C1 &D2 +MS=90 #Init2 = ATQ0 V1 E1 S0=0 &C1 &D2 +FCLASS=0 Stupid Mode = yes Modem Type = Analog Modem Phone = 8374162 ISDN = 0 Username = mylogin@xxxxxxxxxx Carrier check = no Password = mypassword Baud = 115200 wvdial.out: WvDial<*1>: WvDial: Internet dialer version 1.56 WvModem<*1>: Cannot get information for serial port.
