Hi all, This to inform to you that now the same method by which i was connecting to net 4-5 times succssfully now is not working out for me I used to follow these steps :- 1) ifconfig 2) sudo ifconfig eth0 down 3) sudo ifconfig eth1 down 4) ifconfig - to check only lo is working 5) ankur@ankur:~$ sudo slmodemd -c INDIA --alsa hw:0,6 (for which i used to get & still getting following ----> error: alsa setup: cannot open playback device 'hw:0,6': Device or resource busy error: cannot setup device `hw:0,6') Then in 2nd tab -- 6) sudo wvdial Now i am following exactly the same sequence & commands but in return sudo wvdial is showing be " line is busy" .... continuously for 3 days ... AND from windows i am able to connect with the same connection without any problem whatsoever ...
