he problem is it's saying that i haven't supplied a proper: .

1). Phone Number;
2). User Name;
3). Password

Thou my phone number and internet account is all correct. Im using Fedora Core 1. My ISP is Freeserve. Please some1 help me.....

Thanks also to the advice to my other question, thanks alot

When you sys first starts, do you see on the screen if a service called "pppd" has started or not? i.e ppp0 or ppp1 etc...

[variant]

open the file

/etc/wvdial.conf

in a text editor and add the username phonenumber and pass in this format:

Phone = 08089863282
Username = bigmomma
Password = s9p4rst4r5

P.S you sould really have continued the last post you made about modems.
