You didn't paste the text accross like I told you. Linux is case sensitive. That is /dev/ttyS0 ...

I could tell you how to do it but since I also use other distros I guess I won't.

Then replace "atdt" with "atdp" in /etc/wvdial.conf.

The network manager is more reliable for LAN setup. Especially if you use DHCP. Just enable eth0.

Google ethernet linux.

Make sure you have the correct phone number.
Make sure stupid mode is set.
Make sure your firewall is switched off.

Next time you try (sudo wvdial), watch the output in the terminal. When, at last, the connection is lost, copy the entire session to a reply here.

[Dialer Defaults]
You are supposed to be using the following wvdial.conf

Code:

Modem = /dev/ttyS0
Baud = 57600
Dial Command = ATDP
Phone = isp-dialup-number
Username = your-login-name
Password = your-isp-password
Stupid Mode = 1
Init1 = ATZ
Init2 = ATQ0 V1 E1 S0=0 &C1 &D2 +FCLASS=0

... I know you're not because of the warning

Quote:

Warning: inherited section [Modem0] does not exist in wvdial.conf

which means you have a line like

Code:

Inherits = Modem0

in there.

By itself, this doesn't create the effect you've seen. But its presence means I have no way of knowing what else is wrong.

Basically there is nothing wrong with the connection. The modem correctly initializes and dials out. The ISP answers and asks for your user-name. wvdial is supposed to provide the login.

Possibly, you need to use the Login Prompt option.

Login Prompt = Username:

(in this case "Username:" is what you write (including the colon) and not your user-name. This is because that is what the ISP is sending to your system by way of a login string.)
