== About == WvDial is a program that makes it easy to connect your Linux workstation to the Internet. It will automatically detect your modem, and it can log into almost any Internet provider's server without any special configuration. You may download the latest official release of !WvDial at DownloadReleases. For the latest bleeding edge development (and complete development history), see [wlach]'s [http://github.com/wlach/wvdial repository] on github. <b>Please note!</b> WvDial is a system application for Linux users. If you don't use Unix/Linux, you may want to look at NITI's all-in-one network gateway, [http://www.nitix.com Nitix]. WvDial requires WvStreams. If you are compiling it, please make sure that you have WvStreams installed first (both the Shared Library and the Development package).
