NAME

       wvdialconf - build a configuration file for wvdial(1)

SYNOPSIS

       wvdialconf /etc/wvdial.conf

DESCRIPTION

       wvdialconf detects your modem, its maximum baud rate, and a good initialization string and generates or updates the wvdial(1) configuration
       file based on this information.

       wvdialconf is completely non-interactive.  You still need to edit /etc/wvdial.conf to specify the phone number, login name, and password of
       your internet account in order for wvdial(1) to work.

       It  is  safe  to  run  wvdialconf  if a configuration file already exists.  In that case, only the Modem, Baud, Init, and Init2 options are
       changed in the [Dialer Defaults] section, and only if autodetection is successful.

BUGS

       We're willing to entertain the possibility.  Let us know if you have any problems by sending an e-mail to <wvdial@nit.ca>.

       Also, there is now a mailing list for discussion about wvdial.  If you are having problems, or have anything else to say,  send	e-mail	to
       <wvdial-list@lists.nit.ca>.

DIAGNOSTICS

       An exit status of 0 means that a modem was detected and the configuration file was updated successfully.

       Any other value means that something went wrong and the configuration file was unchanged.
