Hi, I downloaded and installed the hsfmodem_7.68.00.09full_i386.deb.zip. Then I rebooted the machine. After that in terminal entered the following.. manish@manish-laptop:~$ sudo wvdialconf /etc/wvdial.conf [sudo] password for manish: Editing `/etc/wvdial.conf'. Scanning your serial ports for a modem. Modem Port Scan<*1>: S0 S1 S2 S3 SHSF0 SHSF1 SHSF2 SHSF3 Modem Port Scan<*1>: SHSF4 SHSF5 SHSF6 SHSF7 Sorry, no modem was detected! Is it in use by another program? Did you configure it properly with setserial? Please read the FAQ at http://open.nit.ca/wiki/?WvDial If you still have problems, send mail to <wvdial-list@xxxxxxxxxxxx>. I think the modem is not detected. So I havent gone ahead. Please guide. Regards, Manish Raje.
