Enter wvdialconf >/etc/wvdial.conf This will attempt to find your modem, and other ppp info. 2. Open /etc/wvdial.conf in your favorite text editer, and uncomment the phone number line, user name, and password, and put in your actual info. 3. Assuming all goes well log in as root and type wvdial &. Make sure to put in that andpersant sign so wvdial is placed in the background. 4. To kill ppp type killall wvdial.
