Robin, Try dialing out with /dev/modem as the modem port. See if you can connect. On several attempts of mine with agrsm, intel536 modem I see wvdialconf find no modem port, but specifying it I can connect try that and report back. I believe that this time it will work :) Regards, Antonio On 3/15/10, Robin <modem@xxxxxxxxxx> wrote: > Hi Joshua, > > Thank you for your suggestions. > > Firstly I tried to compile agrsm-20080203.tar.gz with my original 2.6.26 > kernel (as is shipped with debian lenny).
