[ Ubuntu-BD ] Dialer from Gnome

[Omi]

Relax
Keep your modem connected and on.
Go to terminal and run the command "sudo wvdialconf"
It will detect some things automatically.

Then again type "sudo gedit /etc/wvdial.conf" on the shell and a text 
editor will open. You have to modify the file according to the following 
instruction (NOTE: Change only Phone, Password and Username field, do 
not modify any of the other values, your computer will have some other 
settings value then this one):

[Dialer Defaults]
Init1 = ATZ
Init2 = ATQ0 V1 E1 S0=0 &C1 &D2 +FCLASS=0
Modem Type = USB Modem
Baud = 460800
New PPPD = yes
Modem = /dev/ttyACM0
ISDN = 0
Phone = your_ISP_dialup_number
Password = your_password
Username = your_username

Now save the file and close the window. Type "wvdial" on shell and you 
will be connected.

After you get connected, do not close the terminal and follow that 
site's instruction to get a GUI dialer.

Hope it helps
