Jin re: wvdial " seems to only work after I run this command: sudo slmodemd -c GREECE --alsa hw:0,6 This partial success is not at all using the agrmodem+agrserial pair, but rather the snd-hda-intel (audio+modem) driver under direction of slmodemd -------------------------- tra@geb:~$ sudo wvdial [sudo] password for tra: --> WvDial: Internet dialer version 1.60 --> Cannot get information for serial port. --> Initializing modem. --> Sending: ATZ ATZ OK --> Sending: ATQ0 V1 E1 S0=0 &C1 &D2 +FCLASS=0 ATQ0 V1 E1 S0=0 &C1 &D2 +FCLASS=0 OK --> Modem initialized. --> Sending: ATDT9728520780 --> Waiting for carrier. (keeps repeating) ATDT9728520780 -------------------- In your Init2 = string, try replacing +FCLASS=0 with +MS=34 If there is again a failure, modify the activation command to: $ sudo slmodemd -c GREECE --alsa --debug=2 --log hw:0,6 which will generate a logfile. Send us the logfile.
