RE: Modem dials & connects, but can't browse

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



1)I went to Ubuntu.com to get a fix for the sudo problem.

2)Finally established a dial up connection, but still can't browse.

3)Have tried adding "Auto DNS = yes" to dialler defaults without success.

4)Any further suggestions?

5)Also how to disconnect - is there a command & what is it?

Some data:

6)
Init1 = ATZ 
Init2 = ATQ0 V1 E1 S0=0 X3 &C1 &D2 +FCLASS=0 
Modem Type = Analog Modem 
Baud = 115200 
SetVolume = 1
New PPPD = yes 
Modem = /dev/ttyS0 
ISDN = 0 
Phone = 0198333713 
Password = **************** 
Username = ***********
Stupid Mode = 1
Auto DNS = yes


7)
clive@clive-desktop:~$ sudo wvdial

These results seem OK
Not apparent what your problem is in using "sudo"
More this PM maybe.
