Rick, Upon opening a terminal shell and already having SLMODEMD running in the background ie. i aneta@ubuntu:~$ sudo slmodemd -c AUSTRALIA --alsa modem:1 SmartLink Soft Modem: version 2.9.11 Aug 3 2008 21:41:20 symbolic link `/dev/ttySL0' -> `/dev/pts/0' created. modem `modem:1' created. TTY is `/dev/pts/0' Use `/dev/ttySL0' as modem device, Ctrl+C for termination. Fire up a tab or another terminal shell and try: aneta@ubuntu:~$ sudo wvdial and cross your fingers and hopefully it connects without problems. Report back if you succeed connecting :) Regards, Antonio On Wed, Apr 29, 2009 at 6:54 PM, Rick @ Yahoo <r_vecranges@xxxxxxxxxxxx> wrote: > > Thanks for the reply > > I've updated the wvdial.conf file as advised > > [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 = replacedisp# > Password = pwdreplaced > Username = anetat@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx > Carrier Check = No > #Stupid Mode = 1 > > (First try to connect and upon a successful connection, then you may > try GNOME-PPP.).....Sorry if this sounds dumb, but how do I connect without using GNOME-PPP? > > Thanks > Rick > > > > --- On Wed, 29/4/09, Antonio Olivares <olivares14031@xxxxxxxxx> wrote: > > From: Antonio Olivares <olivares14031@xxxxxxxxx> > Subject: Re: Fw: IBM Thinkpad iSeries 1200 running Xubuntu 8.04 - modem help required. > To: r_vecranges@xxxxxxxxxxxx > Cc: "Marvin Stodolsky" <marvin.stodolsky@xxxxxxxxx>, "Discuss LinModems" <discuss@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> > Received: Wednesday, 29 April, 2009, 4:03 PM > > Rick, > > Before you go to GNOME-PPP first make sure that you can connect use > wvdial.
