Re: Dial-up modem 'No CARRIER'
Maybe you could tell us what kind of modem you've got...
The last time I used my modem is almost a year ago. I got it to work by
using its ALSA driver, but I think I remember that I experienced
problems with wvdial. Some carrier detect problem, badly documented
somewhere on the insane wvdial homepage. I think I got around it by just
using 'ppp on' or something like that. But all of this may not apply to
your modem, of course.
