Peyton, ``Is the line in wvdial: "--> Cannot get information for serial port." significant?'' Guess it is not very significant if you are not using a serial port. Otherwise, don't worry about these messages. `` .......... ATDT7134902223 CONNECT 52000 --> Carrier detected. Waiting for prompt. STATION ID - hontx07rh11hp011,dlltx43ev '' This shows that it tried to connect, but failed because of ??? reason. I hope other users can recommend strategies to get this going. But for now, I can only recommend checking the DOCs/ folder for wvdial.txt. You may add a line "Carrier Check = no" and see if it makes any difference, and or "Stupid Mode = yes" also.
