Dial-up Modem and KNOPPIX v7.0.4 Live CD ...

[klaus2008]

I think that the program wvdial could be used to establish a dial-up connection. You can find examples of a configuration file /etc/wvdial.conf on the internet. There is also a program wvdialconf. Don't forget to read the manual pages of wvdial and wvdialconf.

For now, I just want to see if KNOPPIX can communicate to this modem with its AT commands, but it doesn't seem to find the modem at all even though dmesg show detections:

root@Microknoppix:/home/knoppix# wvdial
--> WvDial: Internet dialer version 1.61
--> Cannot open /dev/modem: No such file or directory
--> Cannot open /dev/modem: No such file or directory
--> Cannot open /dev/modem: No such file or directory

root@Microknoppix:/home/knoppix# wvdialconf
Editing `/etc/wvdial.conf'.

Scanning your serial ports for a modem.

ttyS0<*1>: ATQ0 V1 E1 -- failed with 2400 baud, next try: 9600 baud
ttyS0<*1>: ATQ0 V1 E1 -- failed with 9600 baud, next try: 115200 baud
ttyS0<*1>: ATQ0 V1 E1 -- and failed too at 115200, giving up.
Modem Port Scan<*1>: S1 S2 S3
ttyS4<Info>: No such device or address
Modem Port Scan<*1>: S4


Sorry, no modem was detected! Is it in use by another program?
Did you configure it properly with setserial?

Shouldn't this modem be in lsusb results?
