Derek, You have set autoloading of martian modem via rc.local script. Then if this was working correctly, you should just do a $ sudo wvdial but before check to see that the port exists, i.e, output of $ sudo ls /dev/ttySM0 don't do this: derek@derek-desktop:~$ sudo martian_modem martian: error: open: Device or resource busy martian: info: martian is already running. instead just do: derek@derek-desktop:~$ sudo wvdial --> WvDial: Internet dialer version 1.60 --> Cannot open /dev/ttySM0: No such file or directory if this fails let us know.
