Hello Sarath,

You can use 'sudo wvdial' to connect your DSL by command line.
For this you need to configure(provide phone number/passwd) in
/etc/wvdial.conf
Once changing these values, just do 'sudo wvdial' it should connect. I do
the same, it works fine.
You can use this method by the time this BUG is fixed

regards,
Sunil
