wvdial problems on slack 10


hi there,

i've tried everything i know ... i searched the web ... i've spent more than 12 hours trying and trying ... nothing. than i decided to ask in this forum.

i have a problem with dial-up connection using wvdial on slack 10. it just don't work. i have 3com ISDN modem connected on /dev/ttyS0. no problems here, the slack detects it as cham. since i don't use X (yep, i love console ) i tried to connect to net via wvdial ...

--> Modem initialized.
--> Sending ATDT [my ISP number here]
--> Connect 64000
--> Carrier detected. Starting PPP imediately.
--> starting ppp at Mon Nov 1 23:36:30: 2004

*and it stops here*

no ppp pid ... nothing ... it just hangs

i have changed some settings in /etc/ppp/options like recomended here:

hxxp://xxx.uklinux.net/support/connect.php3

but it didn't worked. i think it is something in my pppd configuration, but i just can't figure it out. i have also tried to connect via minicom and the sad story continues

here's the output:

--> initializing modem
AT S7=45 S0=0 L1 V1 X4 &c1 E1 Q0
OK
AT [i'm checking the modem)
OK [it seems everything's OK]
--> Dialing directory
--> dialing ...
--> Connected. Press any key to continue.
--> CONNECTED! 64000
--> [some char string here]
--> NO CARRIER

you see, that my problem
i would really appreciate if anyone can help. thanx for your time...
