Establishing Dial-Up Connection
To establish connection from the client computer to the server
computer you should configure the client computer to dial-up
the server computer, using the following information:
ISP Name: server.example.com
ISP Phone: +53043515094
Username: client.example.com
Password: mail4u
To estabalish a dial-up connection from the client computer to
the server computer, you need to determine the modem location
assigned by the operating system, so you can instruct
applications like system-config-network the
correct device they will to talk to. This configuration
process has been greatly simplified by the
wvdialconf command distributed with the
wvdial
package. To do this, run the following command and pay
attention to the three last lines of its output:
wvdialconf /etc/wvdial.conf
Scanning your serial ports for a modem.

Found an USB modem on /dev/ttyACM0.
Modem configuration written to /etc/wvdial.conf.
ttyACM0<Info>: Speed 460800; init "ATQ0 V1 E1 S0=0 &C1 &D2 +FCLASS=0"
Now, using this information, configure a Modem connection
using the interface provided by
system-config-network command. Take care of
replacing the /dev/modem device name by
that one found by wvdialconf (e.g., in the
output above would be /dev/ttyACM0). At
this point, you can use the button Activate from
system-config-network to establish the
Modem connection you previously configured.
