Hi All, I am having a rather strange problem when connecting to my modem connection (called Reliance) via the Network manager icon in the dock-tray. Everytime i try to connect, i get the following messages in my /var/log/messages file: May 4 11:46:20 hramesh-lap NetworkManager: <information> Activating dialup device Reliance via Modem (Reliance) ...I am able to start the connection manually by issuing '/sbin/ifup Reliance'. Even after I have connected to the net manually, network manager does not recognize the connection. Is this a known issue? I am running FC 5 + NetworkManager 0.6.0 on a Dell laptop. The modem in question is an external phone-modem (Nokia 3250) connected via a CA-42 cable. Another thing, the Nokia phone is not recognized as a modem by the OS, but after a little bit of tweaking in the wvdial.conf file, the phone can be used as a modem for data connections. Any help on this front would be appreciated. thanks, Rogue |
