[arch-general] wvdial and ppp configuration

[kevku]

well on windows it works something like this
tried it but no success.
some modems (mostly non usb) support AT*ENAP=1,1 which could work better
mayb i just missed something


AT^NDISDUP=1,1,"apn.isp.net"                                                                              
OK
AT^DHCP?
^DHCP:4cc8bb53,f8ffffff,49c8bb53,49c8bb53,429cf7d4,469cf7d4,7200000,5760000
# no idea what this means 
OK
