ok been having a look have you installed the gpilot applet ? is your phone a smart phone ? if so its reconised as a p,d,a to manualy configure a modem for a dial up connection you have to set the ppp if your working off command line you need network admin i am cheating a bit i have the ubuntu bible in front of me we can sort this easily try those 2 areas are you trying to use the mobile as a modem ? or does it have 1 built in ? just need to be clear
