Yes I think hsdpa refers to a section in a wvdial file. A section is
inclosed in square brackets [] if you use the section [dialer
defaults] you don't need to call the section so you would just type
wvdial and the command prompt not wvdial hsdpa. However I don't think
thats your problem as it looked like it used the default section as a
fall back when it couldn't find hsdpa.
Where did you get that mobile number most 3g modems I know use a short
code such as *99# to dial 3g. Next question is do you require a
username and password (ie did voda provide you one) if not they should
be blank.
