Trevor, To stop wvdial, use $ Ctrl-C in the terminal from which it was started. Usually that suffices. If necessary additionally do: $ sudo killall wvdial Otherwise the failure of the 2nd/successive dialouts are as previously reported. Sorry that I can't recover the original URL on this. Hugo was it your report? Hopefully there will eventually be a fix elsewhere in the Linux code base.
