I tried getting a 56k modem connection last night.  I tried to use
wvdial/config
when I ran the wvdialconfig it found my modem ok and wrote out a config
file, I duly entered details: password, my username and IP's telephone
number.

Now, it seems to dial out ok - get a carrier ok but at the last moment get
an error (16) the modem hangs up.  Looking at all the man pages on it and
PPP seem not to give any clue what is happening.

I went to snoozetime pretty late last night so was unable to jot down any
more details.  Also how does one get the output from wvdial to a file the >
operator just produced an empty file.
