Hi Marvin, I edited /etc/wvdial.conf so that Baud = 115200. the
resulting file is below:
-----------------
[Dialer Defaults]
Baud = 115200
Init1 = ATZ
Init2 = ATQ0 V1 E1 S0=0 &C1 &D2 +FCLASS=0
Carrier Check = no
Modem Type = Analog Modem
Phone = 086725327
ISDN = 0
Password = **************
New PPPD = yes
Username = johncurwood
Modem = /dev/ttySL0
-------------------------
I then ran.
sudo wvdial with the following output:

changed Baud to 115200 then:

curwood@ubuntu:~$
----------------------
After attempting a few times I used ctrl+C to exit from attempting to
dial. During one of the dialing attempts I did lift up the speaker on
the phone to hear what was going on, initially it sounded normal but
then a high pitched tone started being emitted which seemed to drown out
any other tones trying to get through.

Sometimes it helps to Edit to:

Hi Marvin,
From the previou replies I received, I removed the';' from the front of
the lines with my details in /etc/wvdial.conf. I then ran:
sudo wvdial
with the following results:
--------------
curwood@ubuntu:~$ sudo wvdial
--> WvDial: Internet dialer version 1.60
--> Cannot get information for serial port.
--> Initializing modem.

ATDT086725327
NO CARRIER
--> No Carrier! Trying again
-------------------
I ended up using ctrl+C to cancel the attempt as it kept looping the same
action.
I then saw your last email saying that I needed to add the line:
Carrier Check = no
to /etc/wvdial.conf
which I did I added the line to the end of the file. Then I tried
sudo wvdial
again with the same result as above. I then tried moving the position the
the 'Carrier Check = no' line in the /etc/wvdial.conf file to see if that
helped. I tried this several times in several different possitions but I
still get the same result.
At the moment the /etc/wvdial.conf file looks like this:
----------------
[Dialer Defaults]
Init1 = ATZ
Init2 = ATQ0 V1 E1 S0=0 &C1 &D2 +FCLASS=0
Carrier Check = no
Modem Type = Analog Modem
; Phone = <Target Phone Number>
ISDN = 0
; Password = <Your Password>
New PPPD = yes
; Username = <Your Login Name>
Modem = /dev/ttySL0
Baud = 460800
-----------------------
Thanks for all your help so far. each time I get a reply I get one step
closer to being able to connect to the Internet from Ubuntu.
Cheers,

Additionally for modems thus using a /dev/pts/N port, currently those
activated by slmodemd or martian_modem, there must be added to
/etc/wvdial.conf a line:
Carrier Check = no
because /dev/pts/N ports do not yet support this capabiity.
