The Warid modem is a very simple modem to set up. Linux sees it on /dev/ttyUSB0 and the attached conf will get it running using wvdial:
Create the file: */etc/wvdial.conf. *Important parts highlighted in case you use another dialer. ------------------ [Dialer Defaults] Modem = */dev/ttyUSB0* Baud = *230400* Init1 = ATZ Init2 = ATQ0 V1 E1 S0=0 &C1 &D2 Init3 = Area Code = Phone = **99#* Username = *user* Password = *user* Ask Password = 0 Dial Command = ATDT Stupid Mode = 1 Compuserve = 0 Force Address = Idle Seconds = 300 DialMessage1 = DialMessage2 = ISDN = 0 Auto DNS = 1 ----------------------- Finished! Execute *wvdial* and enjoy.
