Can't Connect to Internet via LG V8300 phone

When I run wvdialcon as root I get:

wvdialconf
Editing `/etc/wvdial.conf'.

Scanning your serial ports for a modem.

Found an USB modem on /dev/ttyACM0.
Modem configuration written to /etc/wvdial.conf.
pclinuxos-kde-2011.6ttyACM0<Info>: Speed 460800; init "ATQ0 V1 E1 S0=0 &C1 &D2 +FCLASS=0"


/etc/wvdial.conf contains:

[Dialer Defaults]
Init1 = ATZ
Init2 = ATQ0 V1 E1 S0=0 &C1 &D2 +FCLASS=0
Modem Type = USB Modem
ISDN = 0
Phone = {Provider Phone Number}
Modem = /dev/ttyACM0
Username = {my userid}
Password = {my password}
Baud = 460800

running kppp yields:

ATZ
OK
ATQ0 V1 E1 S0=0 &C1 &D2 +FCLASS=0
OK
ATM1L1
OK
ATX3
OK
ATDT3215934000
NO CARRIER

I had been able to connect to my internet provider about 1 year ago.  I think I was using KDE at the time an am currently using  LXDE.

try to run kppp as root and see if the problem is still there

[petefromtville]

Still doesn't work but getting different results.

[root@localhost ricklxde]# kppp
kppp(3894): Session bus not found
To circumvent this problem try the following command (with Linux and bash)
export $(dbus-launch)

kbuildsycoca4(3951) parseLayoutNode: The menu spec file contains a Layout or DefaultLayout tag without the mandatory Merge tag inside. Please fix your file.

Am beginning to think this is related to running in the LXDE version of PCLOS.  Am going to install the KDE4 version to see if it works there.

Some time ago I was messing around with using my LG cell phone as a modem .


Here is what my wvdial settings looked like :

[Dialer Defaults]
Modem = /dev/ttyACM0
Baud = 460800
Stupid Mode = 1
Auto DNS = 1
Init1 = ATZ
Init2 = ATQ0 V1 E1 S0=0 &C1 &D2 +FCLASS=0
ISDN = 0
Modem Type = USB Modem
Phone = #777
FlowControl = Hardware (CRTSCTS)
Dial Command = ATDT
Username = your 10 digit phone number
Password = alltel

Hope this helps !
