This appears to be more than a Conextant driver issue.
The USR5610B has functioned for both Gateway and Dell computers with little or no issues since Breezy Badger and has been splendid thru Feisty, Gutsy and Hardy.

Lastly there seems to be more to this inability to connect or handshake properly which is what it appears to be doing. I was able to run a traceroute with output once connected but for some reason individual site connection is limited or removed out side ot recording the trace.

I made an effort to try both the Debian Gnome-ppp and the latest Gnome-ppp available and it would not make contact with wv and wvdial. pppconfig does dial out and you can hear the normal tones however there is a break of some kind in the system. It appears all the necessary packages are in the Intrepid installation.

Also there needs to be a way for the download of the repaired packages at issue from a general site which can then be placed in the apt cache for Gdebi or dpkg installation. If this is going to be foresaken and not included in Intrepid I would like to know so I can remove Intrepid.
