I've used wvdial which says



kp-15:~$ sudo wvdial
[sudo] password for user:
--> WvDial: Internet dialer version 1.61
--> Cannot open /dev/modem: No such file or directory
--> Cannot open /dev/modem: No such file or directory
--> Cannot open /dev/modem: No such file or directory


I've also used gnome-ppp and tried all combination of 'eevice' and 'type' to let the GUI detect the modem. But GUI tool was not able to detect the connected modem.



Please help.

          This is HowTo using wvdial instead of NetworkManager



          plug in the dongle and in terminal run



          $ sudo wvdialconf


          this identifies the modem device file and various modem properties like baude rate for u and updates /etc/wvdial.conf



          Now



          $ sudo vi /etc/wvdial.conf


          and give username and password which are both ur modem phone number and destination phone no #777 to dial



          Username = 9393209369
          Password = 9393209369
          Phone = #777


          Now dial



          $ wvdial


          Thats it. *Make sure u got sufficient balance else recharge it.

          • Then the fault is with modem drivers. Linux community might not yet updated itself with ur modem driver. Anyway U should try updating ubuntu preferably to 13.04. If u got drivers cd with linux drivers try installing them but u should have luck not breaking ModemManager. If u break ModemManager u got to re-install NetworkManager.

          I have had this issue. I use a reliance netconnect dongle. What I did was, access a windows machine, change the dongle setting to hybrid, reboot into ubuntu and run sudo wvdialconf



          wvdial detected the modem and generated the conf. Then I modified the conf with the username and password. Then run wvdial.



          That worked.

            this identifies the modem device file and various modem properties like baude rate for u and updates /etc/wvdial.conf



            Now



            $ sudo vi /etc/wvdial.conf


            and give username and password which are both ur modem phone number and destination phone no #777 to dial



            Username = 9393209369
            Password = 9393209369
            Phone = #777


            Now dial



            $ wvdial


            Thats it. *Make sure u got sufficient balance else recharge it.

            $ sudo wvdialconf

            • didn't work, executing the cli 'wvdialconf' results in error "Sorry no modem is was detected!". but lsusb shows the device as mentioned in the question.

            • Then the fault is with modem drivers. Linux community might not yet updated itself with ur modem driver. Anyway U should try updating ubuntu preferably to 13.04. If u got drivers cd with linux drivers try installing them but u should have luck not breaking ModemManager. If u break ModemManager u got to re-install NetworkManager.

            I have had this issue. I use a reliance netconnect dongle. What I did was, access a windows machine, change the dongle setting to hybrid, reboot into ubuntu and run sudo wvdialconf



            wvdial detected the modem and generated the conf. Then I modified the conf with the username and password. Then run wvdial.



            That worked.
