How to use USB dialup modem with wvdial.conf
Dennis,
Thanks for all your help with this. My plan is to add to the fix for consistency, primarily adding changes for SL modems (already contributed somewhere else -- or just sent to Barry but not in 4A1). I also need to test under the new kernel before submitting. I hope to have it usable in 4.0.0 and 4.0.2, for inclusion in(alpha) 4.0.3. When you see it on the 4alpha2 forum thread, please try it out with everything you can.

No dialtone?
After some years proudly using Puppy, I finally changed my PC… but the new powerful one hasn’t a serial port, so I had to buy an USB modem (an Atlantis WebRunner, a SmartLink softmodem…) instead of my old good serial one.
Surprise: Puppy 4.00 is able to detect it without any trouble!!!!! But when I try to connect, after dialing up it immediately disconnects giving a “no dial tone

sbaguz,
I have a D-Link USB SmartLink modem and have seen a similar problem. I found that if I leave the "carrier check" option unchecked, the modem works. But not if that option is checked/turned-on. I also found that if I connect the modem through a hub, it will not dial successfully (but I assume you are not using a hub).
I found a discussion about the no-dialtone here, but no resolution:
http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=58459
Some things to verify:
1. Assuming you are in Italy, be sure the /etc/countryinfo file reflects that.
2. lsmod should show module slusb and not slamr as loaded.
3. Please post the PupScan USB Interface listing item for the modem, to see the hardware IDs and that it is using module slusb.
Beyond all this, I am out of ideas.

I get this message about no dialtone when I boot the computer without the usb modem connected. I guess it doesn't load the usb driver for the modem. However you say you can dialup and it wont stay connected, I corrected this by changing the login speed from 57600 to 115200. It dials in and stays connected now.
No success again...
I followed all your suggestions above, everything seems to be ok and nothing changed. Only one point: I haven't a /etc/countryinfo file... Should I create it? In which format should I put country information inside? (By the way: trying a slmodemd -country=ITALY has made things worse: modem no more detected...).

You might try the "modem-wizard" found in /usr/sbin/modem-wizard. I don't remember if it is in 4.0. I have used extra commands in windows to keep a modem connected. I have never looked to see if puppy has a place to put these commands. They went something like "+MS=44k". You might google this command for an init string for modems to see if that can help.

Puppy 2.02 already contains the cp2101 module. To "fetch" it from Puppy's zdrv file, do this
To load it, do this
Code: Select all
modprobe -vn cp2101
Code: Select all
modprobe cp2101

To whom it may concern.I have finally been able to got online with my Toshiba TE2000 using my netcomm roadster 11 56 usb modem .It was straightforward useing Richards modem fix as advised in this thread. Also Puppy 4.00 loaded perfectly on the laptop without any problems. Many thanks to Richard (Rerwin) who engineered both of these results.
Many thanks Richard Regards Dennis
