Pat,

At linmodems web page, there were packages for wvdial, but there seem
to be none for maverick :(

the latest one is for lucid:
http://linmodems.technion.ac.il/packages/wvdial_lucid_i386.zip

Marv,
Are there going to be wvdial packages for ubuntu maverick?

With regards to the license, the package that you have gotten is
limited to 14K, if you want higher speed, you may have to pay$, unless
if you have a DELL Machine for which you can get a free driver.  Read
carefully the file Conexant.txt in the Modem/ folder generated by
scanModem.

Regards,

Antonio
