This is bizarre. It is working now. I suspect that the ISP's dns was not working.
This is my route ouput
Code:
Kernel IP routing table
Destination Gateway Genmask Flags Metric Ref Use Iface
10.64.64.64 * 255.255.255.255 UH 0 0 0 ppp0
default * 0.0.0.0 U 0 0 0 ppp0
and this is my ifconfig
Code:

The question I guess is, Is there anyway to get wvdial to use static dns instead of the ones that is assigned by the ISP. I know that there are solutions floating around but it seems to be with previous version of ubuntu.
Appreciate if anyone can help. Thanks
