My Nokia N82 is working like this: Init2 =3D ATQ0 V1 E1 S0=3D0 &C1 &D2 +FCLASS=3D0 Modem Type =3D USB Modem Phone =3D *99***1# ISDN =3D 0 Username =3D username Init1 =3D ATZ Password =3D password Modem =3D /dev/ttyACM0 Baud =3D 460800 Any better way to manage the connection than 'wvdial' and ctrl+c ? It sounds like wicd doesn't support ppp yet. - Grant
