Hi: My wvdial (and kppp for that matter) will dial twice to make a connection. I get messages like these: --> Modem Initialized. --> Dialing AT&T --> Sending ATDT655 1900 --> Waiting for carrier ATDT655 1900 CONNECT 38666/ARQ/V90/LAPM/V42BIS -->Carrier detected. Waiting for prompt.

A modem hung up the phone (exit code = 16) <snip> This is a stock install; no compiled kernel. Just 7.1 and KDE 2.1. Other times it will work fine but that is not often. Could it be my ISP? TIA -- Cheers, Jonathan
