I normally lock (AT command) the modem to 3G as it's a higher (roaming) rate for GPRS as well as slower. sigmon just runs:- # comgt -d /dev/ttyUSB1 every 5 seconds (using whatever protocol the modem is connected on) handy for antennae tuning. <snipped> >>>>> >>>>> To access the internet I have paid for a Vodafone Mobile >>>>> Internet Contract.

I've come across different things with modems in Greece in the past (the ZTE MF627 from 3 was unlockable in the Greek model, ditto with a Cosmote modem) Then work out a simple way to test your connection (ppp with debug) so we can work out where the problem is. (if Andrei hasn't sorted it for you before then). That's a K3770 modem (they're an OK modem). It should be 12d1:14d1 before it flips. I don't know what the Z sub-model means. Some else mentioned the Sagis utility - you could try that - I've used it in the past and it works very well. Squeeze's NetworkManager is, um, a fine idea - but far from perfect at handling USB 3G modems. My personal preference is pon - but kppp and wvdial are good too. Is this a prepaid modem? Do you have a PIN set?
