A few months ago, I installed F8 and tried to set it up for

couldn't get it to connect (perhaps there were some problems

So, I re-installed F8 (formatted /, but left /home intact).
I'm _still_
have problems - and it seems to be the same issue.
I had to modify wvdial.conf to get even this far (wvdial flat
out
refused to work with the default, as configged by Admin >
Network).

That much probably looks good. BUT, I can't do anything!
(Actually, it
will ping, but no www access.)
Network apparently has a problem with the setup - I activate
the dialup
config, and somehow it gets deactivated.
What's going on?

I don't know if the drivers have gotten better but when I used
dial-up internet access with Linux several years ago, I had to
get an external modem that I found in the Hardware Compatibility
List (US Robotics, I think) before I could connect. I spent many
hours trying to configure several Winmodems and never succeeded.
Once I switched to a modem that was documented as being Linux
compatible, it was easy.

Do you have the following nameservers on /etc/resolv.conf?
nameserver 69.72.0.7
nameserver 209.163.108.78
You might need to add lines to wvdial.conf like
Stupid Mode = yes
What is your ISP so I can try to determine the best settings?
Do you do an
# ifconfig eth0 down
before you try to connect.
You can also read more at LinModems Resource Page, look at the postinstall/wvdial sections.
