Dialing Internet from the console

[z0mbix]

Can anyone advise me how to dial the internet from the console other than using wvdia as I cannot get this working atall? I have read all the documentation for wvdial but I cannot get a successful connection.

I use Debian Potato.

Thanks in advance :confused:
