Hello Everyone,
I am very much new to the world of linux, I am using Red hat Linux Enterprise 5.
Can anyone please guide me as to how can I set up Tata Indicom Plug 2 surf in Linux. In the user manual
1. Log in in the root user.
2. Connect the USB modem to PC
3. Run terminal in Linux
4. type following command.
wvdialconf /etc/wvdial.conf
5. wvdialconf will detect the modem,
its maximum baud rate, and a good
initialization string and will generate
or update the wvdial configuration file
based on this information.
6. A configuration file will be created as
below
[Dialer Defaults]
Modem = /dev/ttyACM0
Baud = 460800
Init1 = ATZ
Init2 = ATQ0 V1 E1 S0=0 &C1 &D2
+FCLASS=0
ISDN = 0
Modem Type = USB Modem
; Phone = <Phone number>
; Username = <Username>
; Password = <Password>
7. But the user still need to edit
/etc/wvdial.conf to specify the phone
number, login name, and password of
your internet account in order for
wvdial to work.
8. User should edit the configuration file
as given below.
[Dialer Defaults]
Modem = /dev/ttyACM0
Baud = 460800
Init1 = ATZ
Init2 = ATQ0 V1 E1 S0=0 &C1 &D2
+FCLASS=0
ISDN = 0
Modem Type = USB Modem
Phone = #777
Username = internet
Password = internet
stupid mode = 1
This is prety much straight forward. But the problem I am facing is whenever I type
wvdialconf /etc/wvdial.conf
It gives an error.
Please guide does I have to change something from the manual for my version of linux?
Thanks.
