Stories similar to usb modem doesn't connect in NetworkManager, but work with wvdial

Hi Guys,I am trying to use wvdial to connect to the network (Network Manager works fine, but I want to use wvdial for other reasons).When I try to connect I get this error..... CONNECT 7200000 The PPP daemon has died.

wvdial might also be a workaround, if one does not like to downgrade. In my case, I had to unset my PIN on the SIM card first.

Been banging my head for a few hours now and it seems wvdial is the only way I can get this damn USB modem to work in ubuntu.

Heres my wvdial.conf

Code: [Dialer Defaults] Init2 = ATQ0 V1 E1 S0=0 &C1 &D2 +FCLASS=0 Modem Type = Analog Modem Phone = *99***3# ISDN = 0 Username = <yournumber>@vzw4g.com Init1 = ATZ Password = vzw Modem = /dev/ttyUSB0 Baud = 9600 Stupid Mode = 1 I h

Keywords: Broadband, UMTS, HSPA, HDSPA, Huawei E180, ITALY, TRE, TIM, PUPPY LINUX 4.1.2

Step_001: Create the file /etc/wvdial.conf as follows: # FILE /etc/wvdial.conf BEGIN vvvvvvvv [Dialer Defaults] Modem = /dev/ttyUSB0 ISDN = off Modem Type = Analog Modem Baud = 921600 Init2 = AT&F+COPS? Init3 = AT+cgdcont=1,"ip","ibox.tim.it",,0,0 #Init3 = AT+cgdcont=1,"ip",&q

I am using wvdial to connect to 3G network.

Sample conf is below. I want to add an if clause. If the Serial Number of the device is not my serial number it should not connect. Serial number can be shown by AT+CGSN.

How can I implement such "if ( AT+CGSN == 123456789 ); then" clause using wvdial? Can I?

Hi,

I'm trying to connect with an O2 dongle (UK) on Fedora 12. When I follow any of the various tutorials online using the network manager, the connection never appears in the network manager and so i can't connect. I have now tried using "sudo wvdial connection_name" after setting up /etc/wvdial.conf.

Hi all,I just purchased an Huawei E586E 3G Modem but I've had no success in getting it to work under Arch / Linux (works fine in Windows though). I have followed the wiki and ensured all the necessary packages are installed (ppp, usb_modeswitch etc).

I want to connect to the internet via a dialup modem which is a US Robotics v92 USB modem which worked with F15, and works with Windows. The computer is a new ASUS desktop CM6870 with i7-3770 @ 3.40 GHz 64 bit system. I think wvdial is working but Firefox, Kmail, and Thunderbird fail to connect to server, or report no host.
