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 <pre class="moz-signature" cols="72">-- Omi <a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="http://omi.net.bd">http://omi.net.bd</a> Bangla Computing Projects: <a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="http://ekushey.org">http://ekushey.org</a> OSS News in Bangla: <a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="http://mukto.org">http://mukto.org</a></pre> Abdur Rahim Khandker wrote: <blockquote cite="mid:f3b1d4980803090607i35281aaewe4430799f9eb7955@mail.gmail.com" type="cite"> <div>The web pages seems to assume that I already have an Internet connection.
