Ankur, Typically there are but two steps for general modem use after bootup. 1) activating the modem. For your System, this is the $ sudo slmodemd -c INDIA hw:0,6 2)With slmodemd left running, start a dialout with from another console or 2nd window on the same console with: $ sudo wvdial Your wvdial.conf file is now appropriate so that does not have do be written again. Best make a safety copy of this file with: $ sudo cp /etc/wvdial.conf /etc/wvdial.conf.1 Whether the modem has been activated can be tested without overwriting wvdialconf with: $ sudo wvdialconf wvtest which will write to wvtest rather than overwrite /etc/wvdial.conf. On at least one boot up, there was an apparent slmodemd activation automatically, which we do not yet understand, and may be part of your problems. When you bootup again, please test slmodemd status by: $ sudo wvdialconf wvtest This will fail (as expected), if slmodemd is not yet active, but should succeed after the step 1), Marvin On Sat, Sep 12, 2009 at 2:18 AM, Ankur Joshi <pharmankur@xxxxxxxxx> wrote: > 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 !!! > > Regards, > Ankur Joshi > > > > On Sat, Sep 12, 2009 at 3:53 AM, Marvin Stodolsky > <marvin.stodolsky@xxxxxxxxx> wrote: >> Ankur, >> >> Before >> $ sudo wvdial >> >> Did you: >> $ sudo slmodemd -c INDIA hw:0,6 >> >> On Fri, Sep 11, 2009 at 4:43 AM, Ankur Joshi <pharmankur@xxxxxxxxx> wrote: >>> Dear Marvin / Antonio, >>> >>> Now my wvdial.conf looks like --> >>> >>> [Dialer Defaults] >>> Init1 = ATZ >>> Init2 = ATQ0 V1 E1 S0=0 X3 &C1 &D2 +MS90 >>> Modem Type = Analog Modem >>> Baud = 460800 >>> New PPPD = yes >>> Modem = /dev/ttySL0 >>> ISDN = 0 >>> Phone = ******** >>> Carrier Check = no >>> Password = ************* >>> Username = *********** >>> >>> __________________________________________________ >>> >>> THEN I DID IFCONFIG & GOT FOLLOWING ... >>> >>> etho & eth1 running with lo >>> ________________________________________________________________________ >>> >>> >>> I SHUT DOWN eth0 & eth1 by following --> >>> >>> $ sudo ifconfig eth0 down >>> $ sudo ifconfig eth1 down >>> >>> _________________________________________________________________________ >>> >>> THEN AGAIN I DID >>> >>> $ sudo ifconfig >>> lo Link encap:Local Loopback >>> inet addr:127.0.0.1 Mask:255.0.0.0 >>> inet6 addr: ::1/128 Scope:Host >>> UP LOOPBACK RUNNING MTU:16436 Metric:1 >>> RX packets:77 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0 >>> TX packets:77 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0 >>> collisions:0 txqueuelen:0 >>> RX bytes:8072 (8.0 KB) TX bytes:8072 (8.0 KB) >>> >>> >>> & ensured eth0 & eth1 are shut. >>> >>> ___________________________________________________________________________ >>> >>> After this i did sudo wvdial >>> >>> But it gave ERROR >>> >>> ALSO i tried with my Gnome PPP it showed Cannot open modem ...
