If you want to automatically connect when you turn on .. works even when disconnec/connec USB 3G modem. Create your script in the directory /script gsm.sh or script of your choice ..
chmod 777 /script/gsm.sh
gsm.sh contains#! /bin/bash ( while : ; do wvdial sleep 60 done ) &
Now put the whole script in / etc / rc.local/script/gsm.sh exit 0
