Hi, I have been trying for several days to connect to a USB 3g phone modem in India on the Reliance GSM 3G network but without any luck. I am using an LG GD570 phone with USB set to Data Transfer mode. The bluetooth on this phone does not appear to allow for DUNS so I decided not to go that route.
While using NetworkManager, the modem is detected and there pops the usual "MobileBroadband connection made which even identifies correctly the provider", but nothing actually happens (and this connection can not be edited). So I create a new Mobile Broadband connection and put in the usual entries: APN: smartnet, plan Reliance but it does not even go to connect. NetworkManager refuses connetion almost instantly and that is that. I have tried changing the phone number from the default *99# to *99***1# and even #700 though I am not sure if the latter is for CDMA connections. Either way, it made no difference so I decided to try the wvdial route. The output of lsusb and the output of dmesg upon attaching the USB cable are as follows: for lsusb: Bus 003 Device 122: ID 1004:6000 LG Electronics, Inc. Various Mobile Phones OK, and that of dmesg: [76131.772493] usb 3-1: new high-speed USB device number 15 using xhci_hcd [76131.953471] usb 3-1: New USB device found, idVendor=1004, idProduct=6000 [76131.953483] usb 3-1: New USB device strings: Mfr=3, Product=2, SerialNumber=0 [76131.953488] usb 3-1: Product: LG Mobile USB Modem [76131.953493] usb 3-1: Manufacturer: LG Electronics, Inc [76131.955764] cdc_acm 3-1:1.0: ttyACM0: USB ACM device So, I created a /etc/wvdial.conf: [Dialer LG] Init2 = ATZ Init3 = ATE0V1&D2&C1S0=0+IFC=2,2 Stupid Mode = 1 Modem Type = USB Modem ISDN = 0 Phone = *99***1# Init5 = AT+CGDCONT=1,"IP","smartnet"; Modem = /dev/ttyACM0 Username = reliance Dial Command = ATDT Password = gsm Baud = 460800 I am told that the user name and the password are not important for GSM connections as long as something is present because that is all GSM checks for. I then run sudo wvdialconf /etc/wvdial.conf and get the following: $ sudo wvdialconf /etc/wvdial.conf Editing `/etc/wvdial.conf'. Scanning your serial ports for a modem.

Modem configuration written to /etc/wvdial.conf. ttyACM0<Info>: Speed 460800; init "ATQ0 V1 E1 S0=0 &C1 &D2 +FCLASS=0" So, it looks like all are on the correct track: so let me try $ sudo wvdial LG --> WvDial: Internet dialer version 1.61 --> Initializing modem. --> Sending: ATZ ATZ --> Sending: ATQ0 ATQ0 OK --> Re-Sending: ATZ ATZ OK --> Sending: ATZ --> Sending: ATQ0 ATQ0 --> Re-Sending: ATZ ATZ --> Modem not responding. I am not able to get out of this despite several edits to the /etc/wvdial.conf files. Any suggestions as to what is going wrong as well as what I should be looking at?
