> PPP is crapping out with a signal 15



try wvdial...



don't know how experienced you are so: 



after apt getting (not sure if it was installed by default) it,



sudo wvdialconf /etc/wvdial.conf



(pray that it will find the
modem..................................................!!!)



sudo gedit /etc/wvdial.conf



input your ISP and passwrod info where needed (it says where); append
this line at the end: 
Code:
--------------------
     Stupid Mode = yes 
--------------------
 . save and close. than sudo wvdial . pray some more... if you're an
atheist, you'll need some beer as support...



Stupid mode lauches pppd as soon as it catches a signal I believe (more
info on with man wvdial)



good luck / beer / pray ...



I really wish ubuntu had out of the box winmodem support. I think we
would be slashdotted for a long time though?
