Marvin, I was not knowing that it is necessary to do it every time. That's why i asked u about what is the procedure for connecting to the internet. I am totally new to linux world & even i do not understand the meaning of the commands u tell to me. So please explain to me the procedure considering i am a total dumbo!!! Anyway today I will try the thing u have suggested. 1st I will do, sudo ifconfig then will shutdown everything except lo then will do, > $ sudo slmodemd -c INDIA hw:0,6 > $ sudo wvdial & will hope that firefox will open Google page !!!
