Dial up networking
Hi!
I've installed a new Kubuntu installation on my Dell Inspiron 1300 laptop and i'm trying to set up dial-up connection right now. I've found the right driver and installed it. The modem is now working properly (vwdialconf detects it, kppp detects it...). Now the trouble for me begins. First, i tried to set up a connection to my ISP with kppp. I set up my account, wrote in all needed data (telephone number, and so on). As i clicked connect, kppp displayed that it is preparing my modem and then exited (crash?) in kppp's history there was no entries... Next i tried vwdial. I configured the configuration file and tried out Code:
wvdial Code:
--> WvDial: Internet dialer version 1.55 Similar was pppconfig's behavior, it sent the ATDT command and then waited in eternity. Please Help!! What am i doing wrong?? Please don't say it's hopeless, because i need this URGENTLY! |
Are you sure the modem works? I would start by verifying this with a manual dial. Use minicom or Kermit to enter the dialing and configuration commands manually:
Code:
ATZ I have a hard time interpreting the phone number you've entered. Are you in North America? --- rod. |
