Very Computer

hi there,

im trying to connect to the internet using debian and wvdial.

i have established a nameserver configuration file, and created
a link from the serial port connected to the modem to /dev/modem.

my reference then suggests the following two commands

1.  type in - route del default
     output -     SIOCDELRT: No such process

2. type in - wvdial
    output - cannot open /dev/modem: Input/output error

anyone with any suggestions?

You either have a winmodem or your modem is not on the serial port you
think it is on.

Try connecting to the modem with minicom.
