If it is, I would do the following: 1) Type in a terminal shell $ dmesg | grep usb I would look for device like usb modem $ su - password: # wvdialconf /etc/wvdial.conf This would scan modem ports to find the port that is needed to use so that you can make dialouts. If a modem port is found, you will need to add some information to it so that you can connect to your provider. For instance I have the following one: [olivares@localhost ~]$ cat /etc/wvdial.conf [Dialer Defaults] Init2 = ATQ0 V1 E1 S0=0 &C1 &D2 +FCLASS=0 Modem Type = USB Modem Phone = #777 ISDN = 0 Username = MYUSERNAME Init1 = ATZ Password = MYPASSWORD. Modem = /dev/ttyACM0 Baud = 460800 Carrier Check = no Stupid Mode = yes I use this to connect (as root user) # wvdial At the end once connected we see several DNS servers. Again open up a terminal become root(su - ) and edit the file /etc/resolv.conf and add those names to the file /etc/resolv.conf so that you can browse. If you have questions, please let us know.
