I'm now trying to connect to the "Zain" network in Tanzania and I can't get it to work. I can browse the internet from the phone (Nokia N82), but I can't seem to connect with wvdial. Here's what I get with the debug option enabled in /etc/ppp/options: # wvdial --> WvDial: Internet dialer version 1.60 --> Initializing modem. --> Sending: ATZ ATZ OK --> Sending: ATQ0 V1 E1 S0=3D0 &C1 &D2 +FCLASS=3D0 ATQ0 V1 E1 S0=3D0 &C1 &D2 +FCLASS=3D0 OK --> Modem initialized. --> Sending: ATDT*99# --> Waiting for carrier.

I'm new to wvdial and cell phone data connections in general. What could be the problem? - Grant
