So can anyone help me configure my wvdial for usa at&t. I've found a few but there conflicting information amongst them. Also, when I am dialing out I am receiving a no dial tone message. What could I be doing wrong now? Antonio & Marv, Thank you so much. I know I am bit redundant, but I really appreciated all the help setting up martian. shanie mahepath wrote: > SUCCess! Now I have to redo my bluettooth again and then configure wvdial for At&t. Thank you, so very much! I am so happy now! By the way I omitted a space i think i was typing (cd~\Desktop) as oppose to ( cd~/Desktop)...I knew that letter case was vital but had no clue that spaces or lack thereof was also an integral apart of entering commands in terminal. I feel like if I am trying to solve derivatives and limits using Mathematica again.
