The very simplest (and very good) editor under Unix/Linux is named nano
I have not noted if your Linux is born Ubuntu.
If it is, just type sudo nano /etc/wvdial.conf
It is not, become supersuser (aka root) with command su then use
nano /etc/wvdial.conf
The various things which you can in addition to typing (erasing forward
with the DEL key and backwards with the BACK key) are shown at the
bottom of the screen where ^ means that you have to hold down the CTRL
key while using the command letter which follows the ^ character.
Need I say that nano runs in a window/terminal/console , you name it?

Hello There
I presume that what is supposed to happen when I type in
gedit /etc/wvdial.conf
is that it will bring the file up and I will be able to add my
personal to the config
gedit is an unknown command, I searched the internet an since I have
KDE I tried
kedit /etv/wvdial.conf , also kwrite and they have not worked ?
Nothing will bring up the file so I can edit it ?
Thanks, Nonni
