Lugger's Thanks to all the inputs I am finally able to connect to internet through Nokia phone. Frustating in parts as listed in caveats beow.
I used Ubuntu 5.10 utility pppconfig to set the following: Number : #777 User : my phone # without leading zero Password : my phone # without leading zero Speed : 115200 COMport: /dev/ttyUSB0 Authentication : PAP Modem init : ATZ+crm=1;+cso=33 ISP connect string : \d\c I named this connection Test and the gave the following command to connect: $pon Test To disconnect: $poff Worked very well with speeds up to 100 kbps. Created a launch icon on desktop for pon and poff (if only some scripting guru can make it into one script which detects ppp connection and juggles between pon and poff) CAVEATS: 1. This has been tested on Nokia 2112 only. This did not work for Nokia 6225 2. Beware - All DKU-5 cables are not made equal. The ones with cable coming from right hand side on the phone base connector (arrow pointer on top) worked while the ones with cable from left hand did not. Although both came from Reliance and carry same part Number!! 3. Even when you turn off the connection the phone does not drop connection. You have to manually use stop call button on phone...even if you disconnect the cable.
