GREAT SUCCESS! I added the following to wvdial.conf and it works! I think this amounts to defining the APN. Init3 = AT+CGDCONT=1,"IP","internet" Thanks a lot for everyone's help. I don't recommend the Serena Lodge wireless internet connections in Tanzania. Very expensive and most ports don't work. The Zain SIM works great now. Incidentally, I got antlr to emerge by temporarily enabling softmode on my PAX-enabled kernel. - Grant
