    Has anyone gotten this working yet please - i followed this tutorial in both Ubuntu(boot from USB) and Linpus and i can make connection to the modem, then it just times out. Got my VID and PID (although Vista and Ubuntu give me difffernt values?) and tried editing the wvdial.conf but no cigar yet.

    The phone works as a modem as i can get it going in Vista - it's an Orange M3100 - any help would be greatly appreciated.

    I am doing the following:

    STEP 1
    Code:
    modprobe usbserial vendor=vid product=pid 
    where vid = vendor id and pid = product id

    Plug in PDA and launch Modem

    Edit /etc/wvdial.conf append below line:

    Code:
    [spv Dialer]
    Modem =/dev/ttyUSB0
    Baud = 115200
    Init1 = ATZ
    
    Init2 = AT+CGDCONT=1,"IP","internet"
    Phone = *99#
    Username = my_login_name
    Password = my_login_password
    Where "internet" is the name of the APN in the phone and Username & Password i've tried leaving blank and putting a semicolon in.

    STEP 3

    Code:
    wvdial spv
