You should be able to get it to work by using most of the references found on the web. I've managed to get it working with the following steps; 1. Start Ubuntu 7.04 with the USB modem plug in (you should see /dev/ttyUSB0, /dev/ttyUSB1, and /dev/ttyUSB2) 2. Edit wvdial.conf with the following settings (with reference to Singapore StarHub) [Dialer hsdpa] Phone = *99# Username = star Password = hub Stupid Mode = 1 Dial Command = ATDT Modem = /dev/ttyUSB0 Baud = 460800 Init2 = ATZ Init3 = ATE0V1&D2&C1S0=0+IFC=2,2 ISDN = 0 Modem Type = Analog Modem Init5 =AT+CGDCONT=1,"IP","shwap"; 3. route add default gw 10.64.64.64 I've tried to get it to work on FC8, FC7, FC6, Ubuntu 7.10, and RHEL5 but to no avail.
