Thanks a bunch Antonio, that seems to have enabled detection and I was able to dial out with it but now it seems to disconnect: barbara@ubuntu-barb:/etc$ sudo wvdial --> WvDial: Internet dialer version 1.60 --> Cannot get information for serial port. --> Initializing modem. --> Sending: ATZ ATZ OK --> Sending: ATQ0 V1 E1 S0=0 &C1 &D2 +FCLASS=0 ATQ0 V1 E1 S0=0 &C1 &D2 +FCLASS=0 OK --> Modem initialized. --> Sending: ATDT2063121000 --> Waiting for carrier. ATDT2063121000 --> Disconnecting at Sat Apr 11 13:52:06 2009 This was after I ran sudo wvdialconf barbara@ubuntu-barb:/etc$ cat /etc/wvdial.conf (some values edited) [Dialer Defaults] Init1 = ATZ Init2 = ATQ0 V1 E1 S0=0 &C1 &D2 +FCLASS=0 Modem Type = Analog Modem Baud = 460800 New PPPD = yes Modem = /dev/ttySL0 ISDN = 0 Phone = (edited) Password = (edited) Username = (edited) Any suggestions?
