Well I didn't find where to look at the logs but I did find out some very useful things.

1) After you setup with network manager you can just manually run wvdial from a terminal and it works and you get to see everything I was talking about.

2) It *IS* possible to insert the SIM into the device incorrectly. This results in every attempt to DIAL returning "ERROR" in a terminal program such as minicom using device /dev/ttyUSB0 for example. IE ATDT*99# = ERROR.

3) The Windows software gives you more explanation of ERROR - in our case something to the effect of "Error reading USIM card". Oh yeah an to spite claims to the contrary, the one we got we had to use the Install CDROM. This is because Windows XP wouldn't see the emulated CDROM - Ubuntu does but then the software on it's useless ;-)

4) Even before the software has been told to connect you see blue LED flashes indicating network availability (Windows & Linux), ONLY when the SIM is inserted correctly.

Does that mean you got the E180 working?
