eznet 1.8
Eznet makes setting up PPP for Linux easy. Just enter the name of your
ISP, a phone number to dial, the login name, the password and the TTY
and eznet takes care of the rest. There are no chat scripts to write,
nor any pppd configuration files to fuss over. Eznet handles multiple
ISPs and can dialup any of them with a single simple command. It also
supports dial-on-demand using either kerneld or diald.

WvDial 1.00
WvDial (pronounced "Weave Dial") is an easier way to
connect to the internet. It completely avoids the need
for chat scripts, edits pap-secrets and chap-secrets for
you, detects your modem automatically, and chooses a
valid init string. It can even read and respond to
command prompts at almost any ISP.
