/sbin/iwconfig

Code:
lo       no wireless extensions.
ppp0     no wireless extensions.



Which makes sense, since I manually renamed usb8388.bin to flying so as to disable the Mesh and wireless network card.

Meanwhile, in second copy of terminal, wvdial is running successfully.

Code:

We were stuck on the line 'cannot get information for serial port' for a while, until realizing that Ubuntu gives the same script, but still connects and browses fine.

One difference between the (working) Ubuntu and XO is that Ubuntu resolves the IP address in netstat -r, showing a domain instead of IP.
