Has anyone succeeded in setting up pacenet internet on ubuntu or fedora?
I used to have a pacenet connection about 2 years ago. Had the same issue.
I don't know if the issue is still the same but in my case i had to get my account enabled from pacenet so that i could connect using linux.
1. You don't need to run the widows dialer using wine 2. Insist on talking to a pacenet network person who knows that linux exists and tell the person to activate your account so that you can connect through linux. I know this sounds weird but believe me it works. The network support guys would first refuse to believe that such an OS exists ... then they would refuse to accept that your ID needs to be separately activated for connecting without their windows dialer ... but if you persist with it ... they would do the needful. 3. Remember: "you need to get your account enabled such that you wouldn't need a dialer to connect"
Have fun, Kapil
