How Can I use USB Modem with Ubuntu?
some modern USB modems work automatically without installation and/ or configuration. however for some old fashioned USB modem you can use wvdial to connect. wvdial use /etc/wvdial.conf as configuration file. most ubuntu derivatives have wvdial pre-installed. however the configuration depends on your telecommunication carrier. /etc/wvdial.conf that matches my carrier in Indonesia looks like this
[Dialer Defaults]
Init1 = ATZ
Init2 = ATQ0 V1 E1 S0=0 &C1 &D2
Init3 = AT+CGDCONT=1, "IP", "telkomsel"
stupid mode = yes
Modem Type = USB Modem
ISDN = 0
New PPPD = yes
Phone = *99**1*1#
Modem = /dev/ttyACM0
Username = wap
Password = wap123
Baud = 460800
