problems configuring r-connect in linux.

5 posts · originally from https://geek.digit.in/community/threads/problems-configuring-r-connect-in-linux.2925/

A friend of mine has suse 9.1 in his machine and he asked me to configure the reliance indiaphone to act as a modem. i used wvdial to configure the modem, but the modem could not be detected in /dev/ttys0.
i then used the following script in the wvdial.conf file.

Code:

[Modem0] 
Modem=/dev/ttyS0 
Baud=115200 
SetVolume=0 
Dial Command = ATDT 
init1=ATZ 
FlowControl= Hardware (CRTSCTS) 
[Dialer reliance] 
Username= Ph No. 
Password= Ph No. 
Phone=#777 
Stupid Mode= 1 
Inherits = Modem0

but still when i try to connect by typing wvdial reliance at the console, it shows an error that no modem could be found at /dev/ttys0.
i had downloaded the install.sh script from the reliance website, but that too can't detect the modem.
it works perfectly in windows xp.
plz help.
