With SprintPCS I've always been able to just configure the connection
via the Fedora Network configuration tool, then it shows up in NM and I
can just turn it on and off. This was true with my old 1xRTT service
and appears to be the case

Huh, I've got multiple modems configured just fine (in FC5).
And as for the username/password, I just use web/web.
You could also supply it and then add 'noauth' to the PPP options.

Quick question though; for those of you doing PPP over GPRS/EDGE or EVDO
cards, can you use wvdial? What does your connection process look like
and how did you set up the card/connection?
And two last notes -- wvdial is by far better for this type of magic. And

Hi,
I know there are some attempts to make PPP working with NM, but I have
slightly more simple answer. Is it possible to *discover* existing PPP
connection with NM created by other means (i.e., running wvdial in su-ued

What about looking to see if ppp0 is an active connection? I have a
program called conky that I run on the desktop, and it polls ppp0. When
it gets an IP address, it displays it along with transfer statistics. I
have the same problem as Matej, because I can't make VPN connections

You can and it works just like any other modem except I dial #777 (Or
whatever the vendor wants you to dial) and use a generic username with
no password. The Chatscript is provided by the phone vendors (Or at

It is all manufacturer specific, this is why gprsec has profiles for
all the providers and devices. I honestly think that automatic setup
would be impossible for NetworkManager without a large database, maybe
the gprsec database can be leveraged? The best that could be done
