Thomas,
Please send to the List, not direct to me as I am rarely
online.
Try once more after a reboot.
$ sudo wvdial
If still failure
$ hsfconfig --help
$ sudo hsfconfig --dumpdiag
which write to the /tmp/ folder. Send the output to:
"Support
(Jonathan)" <support@xxxxxxxxxxxx>,

Dear MarvS:
You have been super helpful so far, thank you very
much. I finally got all the way through your original
instructions, that is to say the following instructions:
"From
http://www.linuxant.com/drivers/hsf/full/downloads-ubuntu-x86.php
download
hsfmodem-7.68.00.12full_k2.6.24_16_generic_ubuntu_i386.deb.zip
Under Linux unpack with:
$ unzip hsfmodem*.zip
Then install with:
$ sudo dpkg -i hsfmodem*.deb
Subsequently, the modem should be found with
$ sudo wvdialconf /etc/wvdial.conf
Edit in your personal information with:
$ sudo gedit /etc/wvdial.conf
and try dialing out with:
$ sudo wvdial.
See DOCs/Testing.txt for details."
Everything worked fine until I run the last command,
"sudo wvdial", it gives me the following error
message:
"--> WvDial: Internet dialer version 1.60
--> Cannot open /dev/modem: Input/output
error"
Again, forgive me being so lost, but I don't know
to do about this. Can you please help again? Thank you

Thomas,
Just use any dialer utility your Linux Distro
provides.
But use its setup component before you try a full
dialout.

Dear MarvS:
Thank you for all your help so far, but
please help me
just a little bit more.
I gave up on that installer (dldrinstall.run)
and went
back to the second suggestion in your original
message to
me. I was able to download the hsfmodem*.deb
package,
install it, and configure it using wvdial.conf.
But again,
I am stuck at the very last step - wvdial.
doesn't work.
When I try to run it, I get the message
"command not
found". I searched my file system, and
can't find
it on my computer.
The other instruction I was not able to
follow was
reading DOCs/Testing.txt and DOCs/Conexant.txt. I
can't
find either one on my computer, Linuxant, or
Linmodem.
(As you can tell from all this, I am far from
expert
and very lost. Please bear with me. Also, I have
internet
access even as I try to install the dialup modem.
I have
intermittent access to a wireless router, and only
work on
this when I have access.)

It is a file not URL I think, as
127.0.0.1 always
refer to
your own PC.
On my Ubuntu system, there is in
/etc/hosts
127.0.0.1 localhost

Thomas,
Excuse me but I am not intelligent
enough to
understand what you mean by: "I
downloaded the installer".
Which installer is this
"THE", you
did not
say, and I cannot guess.
Is it the file
"hsfmodem-7.68.00.12x86_64full.tar.gz"
which Marv
told you to
download, or the Linuxant crap named
"cnxtinstall.run" ?
Installing
hsfmodem-7.68.00.12x86_64full.tar.gz does
not require any
browser, it just requires to read
the
instructions for
installation using
method C in the
"Installation" page
linked
from the HSF menu on the left
side of page
http://www.linuxant.com/drivers.
cnxtinstall.run does use a browser
but Marv
did not
tell you to use it, and
I name that "installer"
crap
because it
makes things more complicated than
the straight method and because it
requires
that you
already have a working
connection (LAN, ADSL, other modem)
because
it
downloads material from the
Linuxant site, which is of course
not
possible when
you just have a modem
still not working (the hen and the
eggs, you
know...)
I have asked Linuxant several times
to remove
it. No
effect.

Dear Mr. Stodolsky:
Thanks for you help, I am almost
there,
but not
quite.
I got the license, downloaded
the
installer,
installed the software,
everything going well. Next step
is go to
Web
Configurator at
http://127.0.0.1:18020/
but I can't get there. It
asks the
username
and password again, just like
it did at the previous step, but
the same
password
doesn't work. Nothing
works, at least not in four
complete
re-installations with every variation
in detail I could think of.
Please, how do I get this web
configurator page?
How do I complete the
installation?

Tom,
For support under your
x86_64 System
from
http://www.linuxant.com/drivers/hsf/full/downloads.php
get the
hsfmodem-7.68.00.12x86_64full.tar.gz
unpack under Linux with:
$ tar zxf hsf*.tar.gz
and follow the instructions
in the
new
hsfmodem-7.68.00.12x86_64full folder
You could also install a 32
bit
linux-image
package,
matching
KernelVersion with one of
the
packages on
http://www.linuxant.com/drivers/hsf/full/downloads-ubuntu-x86.php,
which have precompiled
drivers.
below are more typical
Bioler Plate
instructions. The most
expert help
for Linuxant software is
through
"Support
(Jonathan)"
<support@xxxxxxxxxxxx>. But
first
run the
$ sudo hsfconfig --diagnose
and send him the output
written to
the /tmp/
folder
