Would be most grateful. Never used wvdial but will learn now of course. So basically I treat it just as a standard modem is that it?

I have a Tata Indicom VDATA PCMCIA card for internet access when out of office. Is it possible to use this with Fedora core 6? Any pointers please.
I have used the Huawei EC321 data card on FC6.x86_64. Setting it up using wvdial was a breeze. If you want, I can provide you the wvdial settings that I used.

Koustubha, please remove email addresses of the sender as the mails will appear on the public domain. Email addresses are harvested by BOTs and that results in never ending spam. :)
wvdial is a very handy script for dialup connections in linux. From what I remember, you can use Kppp *after* you set up wvdial as kppp picks up settings from wvdial. For all mobiles, cards etc, the important part in wvdial is the INIT command which is device specific. It is available on the net from various forums. For eg. for Nokia 3125 phone, its 'AT+CRM=1;+CSO=33'.
