Hi Marvin, After a reboot here is the result from agrsm-test. No modem found. ********************************************************************* Loading drivers: Drivers loaded: agrserial 19808 0 agrmodem 1259268 1 snd 63268 16 agrmodem,snd_hda_intel,snd_pcm_oss,snd_mixer_oss,snd_pcm,snd_seq_oss,snd_rawmidi,snd_seq,snd_timer,snd_seq_device and symbolic link created: lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 12 2009-03-21 09:53 /dev/ttySAGR -> /dev/ttyAGS3 Checking for utility wvdialconf Found /usr/bin/wvdialconf, preparing to run: wvdialconf /etc/wvdial.conf Modem Port Scan<*1>: S0 S1 S2 S3 ttySAGR<*1>: ATQ0 V1 E1 -- failed with 2400 baud, next try: 9600 baud ttySAGR<*1>: ATQ0 V1 E1 -- failed with 9600 baud, next try: 115200 baud ttySAGR<*1>: ATQ0 V1 E1 -- and failed too at 115200, giving up. A reboot may be necessary before modem detection through: sudo modprobe agrserial Which will load agrmodem, agrserial and create the symbolic link needed for: sudo wvdialconf The installation record has been written to ./agrsm-test.txt ********************************************************************* Thanks for the help.
