Problem Connecting to Internet

Asked by freebie

I have a Wireless ADSL Modem connecting to my PC with ethernet cable. When I switch ON the wireless modem, all indicators' light are ON (Power, WLAN, DSL, Internet, Ethernet indicators).

Then I run this into terminal:

'sudo pppoeconf'

and followed the steps exactly from
https://help.ubuntu.com/8.04/internet/C/modems-adsl-pppoe.html

then I type 'plog' it shows these lines:

Jul 24 22:59:48 my-desktop pppd[14406]: Using interface ppp0
Jul 24 22:59:48 my-desktop pppd[14406]: Connect: ppp0 <--> eth0

Jul 24 22:59:50 my-desktop pppd[14406]: secondary DNS address 202.188.1.5

then I type 'ifconfig' :

Then I try to browse internet,but it shows page "address not found" after taking so long to reach google page.

Now I'm using the dial-up internet from a different ISP.The configuration for this dial-up internet is at /etc/wvdial.conf, as below:

[Dialer Defaults]
Modem = /dev/ttyACM0
Baud = 460800
Init1 = ATZ
Init2 = ATQ0 V1 E1 S0=0 &C1 &D2 +FCLASS=0
ISDN = 0
Modem Type = Analog Modem
Phone = *99#
Username = username
Password = password
Stupid Mode = 1

Now what I want to do is, to connect my new internet and then I will terminate the former dial-up internet account. The latter internet connection is the one with Wireless ADSL Modem, and the former is a USB Modem (phone).

I don't know why I couldn't connect internet with my new internet connection as all the configurations are correctly done. Thus kindly request assistance on this matter. TQ in advance.

You said "I have a Wireless ADSL Modem connecting to my PC with ethernet cable." which is actually a wired connection, In the upper right you will find your connection manager be sure to check enable networking then edit connections click on ipv4settings and select manual under method put your info in there once you have put your ip address net mask gateway in the DCHP client id is where you will put your prefered dns and secondary dns once this is done the green apply button will light up on the bottom. You should be connected at this point.

Good Luck:) David
