I've switched to using the wvdial scripts from http://julian.coccia.com/blog/index.php?m=200503&more=1 and now everything's working fine. well almost fine; despite setting noauth in /etc/ppp/peers/gprs, it still wouldn't work without a dummy username and password in gprs-wvdial.conf My provider, Orange, doesn't need authentication, but doesn't seem to mind if you stick some random entries in the file to keep the script happy. stef -- /* Stefan Magdalinski +447769 666528 (telephone) smagdali (IM/flickr.com/etc) */ ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by Oracle Space Sweepstakes Want to be the first software developer in space?
