Hi,
the link you gave me does not work. No way to find something like wvdial.
I guess the solution at this point is just wait until i'll find another way to connect to internet in fedora.
Thank you

Of cource it needs an internet connection to work, Either that or you must have a local repo.
Try.
Boot into Windows if you have it.
Download wvdial from
<http://ftp.heanet.ie/mirrors/fedora/linux/releases/12/Everything/i386/os/wvdial-1.60-10.fc12.i686.rpm>
Use x86_64 if you have a 64 bit system
Copy it to a USB key
Boot into fedora.
copy wvdial to local disk
Them
yum localinstall wvdial
