How To Install wvdial In Backtrack 5

Here I will be sharing on Linux software. One of them wvdial. Wvdial is needed, if we use the Internet connection, especially Modem. Sometimes there are modems that can only connect to a windows only, but can not connect via Linux. So, we have to download the wvdial through windows. Files that must be downloaded, among others:


For Linux x86

1. libwvstreams4.6-base_4.6-2_i386.deb
2. libwvstreams4.6-extras_4.6-2_i386.deb
3. libxplc0.3.13_0.3.13-2ubuntu2_i386.deb
4. usb-modeswitch_1.0.2-1_i386.deb
5. libuniconf4.6_4.6-2_i386.deb
6. libnss3-1d_3.12.6-0ubuntu0.8.04.1_i386.deb
7. wvdial_1.60.1 + nmu2ubuntu1_i386.deb

For Linux x64

1. libwvstreams4.6-base_4.6-2_amd64.deb
2. libwvstreams4.6-extras_4.6-2_amd64.deb
3. libxplc0.3.13_0.3.13-2ubuntu2_amd64.deb
4. usb-modeswitch_1.0.2-1_amd64.deb
5. libuniconf4.6_4.6-2_amd64.deb
6. libnss3-1d_3.12.6-0ubuntu0.8.04.1_amd64.deb
7. wvdial_1.60.1 + nmu2ubuntu1_amd64.deb

If all the files have been downloaded, let's install on Linux. First open a terminal, then type this command:

For Linux x86

$ Sudo dpkg-i libwvstreams4.6-base_4.6-2_i386.deb
$ Sudo dpkg-i libwvstreams4.6-extras_4.6-2_i386.deb
$ Sudo dpkg-i libxplc0.3.13_0.3.13-2ubuntu2_i386.deb
$ Sudo dpkg-i usb-modeswitch_1.0.2-1_i386.deb
$ Sudo dpkg-i libuniconf4.6_4.6-2_i386.deb
$ Sudo dpkg-i libnss3-1d_3.12.6-0ubuntu0.8.04.1_i386.deb
$ Sudo dpkg-i wvdial_1.60.1 + nmu2ubuntu1_i386.deb

 For Linux x64

$ Sudo dpkg-i libwvstreams4.6-base_4.6-2_amd64.deb
$ Sudo dpkg-i libwvstreams4.6-extras_4.6-2_amd64.deb
$ Sudo dpkg-i libxplc0.3.13_0.3.13-2ubuntu2_amd64.deb
$ Sudo dpkg-i usb-modeswitch_1.0.2-1_amd64.deb
$ Sudo dpkg-i libuniconf4.6_4.6-2_amd64.deb
$ Sudo dpkg-i libnss3-1d_3.12.6-0ubuntu0.8.04.1_amd64.deb
$ Sudo dpkg-i wvdial_1.60.1 + nmu2ubuntu1_amd64.deb

After installing wvdial with the above, then continue with this command:

$ Lsusb
(Appear like this. Layout usb modem seek you)

Bus 002 Device 003: ID 1c9e: 9d00 --- modem to be here (Example)
Bus 002 Device 002: ID 8087:0020 Intel Corp.. Integrated Rate Matching Hub
Bus 002 Device 001: ID 1d6b: 0002 Linux Foundation 2.0 root hub
Bus 001 Device 003: ID 0c45: 641d Microdia
Bus 001 Device 002: ID 8087:0020 Intel Corp.. Integrated Rate Matching Hub
Bus 001 Device 001: ID 1d6b: 0002 Linux Foundation 2.0 root hub

After that, type this command:

$ Modprobe usbserial vendor = 0x9d00 product = 0x1c9e

Then type this command:

$ Dmesg

Kemduian, type the last command:

$ Sudo wvdialconf

Found a modem on / dev/ttyUSB3.
Modem configuration written to / etc / wvdial.conf. --- Modem meet

* To change the setting wvdial, type this command in the terminal.

$ Sudo gedit / etc / wvdial.conf

[Dialer defaults]
Init2 = ATZ
Init3 = ATQ0 V1 E1 S0 = 0 & C1 & D2 + FCLASS = 0
Stupid Mode = yes
Modem Type = Analog Modem
Phone = # 777
Modem = / dev/ttyUSB3
Username = smart
Dial Command = ATDT
Password = smart
Baud = 460800

* Here I use a smart, to flexi, live aja changed, the process is the same anyway.
* After the save and quit

To connect the modem, type the command.

$ Sudo wvdial

Note: If you still can not connect to the Internet, try to check on the internet through Windows, how do you have a modem that can be connected in Linux. Do not forget to include the name of the provider that you use. (Flexi, Smart, and others).

Good Luck. :)
