A few months ago, I installed F8 and tried to set it up for dial-up. I
couldn't get it to connect (perhaps there were some problems with the
install).
So, I re-installed F8 (formatted /, but left /home intact). I'm _still_
have problems - and it seems to be the same issue.
I had to modify wvdial.conf to get even this far (wvdial flat out
refused to work with the default, as configged by Admin > Network).

Modem = /dev/ttyS1
Baud = 115200

Here is output (bad characters removed):

That much probably looks good. BUT, I can't do anything! (Actually, it
will ping, but no www access.)
Network apparently has a problem with the setup - I activate the dialup
config, and somehow it gets deactivated.
What's going on?
