Marvin Sorry I forgot to add following output in my earlier mail ... ankur@ankur:~/Desktop/SLMODEMD.gcc4.3$ sudo slmodemd -c INDIA --alsa hw:0,6 SmartLink Soft Modem: version 2.9.11 Aug 3 2008 22:31:06 symbolic link `/dev/ttySL0' -> `/dev/pts/1' created. modem `hw:0,6' created. TTY is `/dev/pts/1' Use `/dev/ttySL0' as modem device, Ctrl+C for termination. ^Cankur@ankur:~/Desktop/SLMODEMD.gcc4.3$ sudo gedit /etc/wvdial.conf ankur@ankur:~/Desktop/SLMODEMD.gcc4.3$ sudo wvdial --> WvDial: Internet dialer version 1.60 --> Cannot open /dev/modem: No such file or directory --> Cannot open /dev/modem: No such file or directory --> Cannot open /dev/modem: No such file or directory ankur@ankur:~/Desktop/SLMODEMD.gcc4.3$ & I ensured to add the extra line in /etc/wvdial.conf Carrier Check = no Still i am not figuring out how exactly to connect to my internet.
