Debian :: Android Tethering / Wired Changes To Mobile Broadband
Aug 27, 2015
I am trying to tether internet from my LG Leon to a new debian 8.1 install so i can install network drivers but i keep getting disconnected.After activating the tethering, it works fine, and appears as a "wired" connection in Network, after a minute it will always change from wired to "Mobile Broadband" and asks me to select my "Network". (Then the internet doesn't work until tethering is reset.) Is there any way i can stop debian from doing this? The silly thing the internet works perfectly until it shifts it like this.

I am running ubuntu 10.10 and supplying my internet connection with EasyTether on my Motorola Droid 2. I've got my laptop internet working great, but I've tried to follow a couple connection sharing guides and they don't seem to work with my PS3. So the setup is that EasyTether provides the internet connection and an ethernet cable connects the laptop and ps3. I have even tried using FireStarter, but it says eth0 (the connection between laptop and ps3) is not ready.
So here's the question: What should I do to allow my ps3 to access the internet? I've tried manual and automatic settings on my ps3 and neither worked. I believe the problem is with my laptop's settings.
Here's what happens when I do a connection test on my PS3 (automatic config)
Obatain IP Address - Failed
And when I do it manually
Obtain IP Address - Succeeded
Internet Connection - Failed

I've just got a nice HTC Desire (ie almost the same model as the Nexus One), and it can work as a modem for accessing the internet. After googling this, I've found out that on debian it works straight without adding any package, just as the pjone is connected. This is not the case on slackware 13... Has anyone got this to work already?

I don't know what the problem is, I followed the instructions here: [url]
But like some other folks there, netcfg usb0 dhcp just eventually times out.
I have an htc evo and fedora 15.

I have an Asus K50IJ laptop and everything works great, but now I'm moving house and need to switch to a mobile broadband dongle. From what I can tell the major providers here in the UK don't support Linux, so I'm hoping someone can help me with the question of mobile broadband on debian and what does and doesn't work by default. I'm happy to get my hands dirty and keep learning about linux and debian, but I'm definitely still a beginner in both. I couldn't find what I needed searching the man pages, wiki or forum, but point in me in the right direction if you think I've missed something useful. Ideally I'd like to use Virgin Mobile so I've asked them for specs on the dongle they supply and I'll post that info when I get it. Any help would really be appreciated as I rely on the internet pretty heavily.

Im running Pure:Dyne, an audio-centric distro, and so far I have not been able to get my usb modem to work. Im using a Huawei EC168 and my carrier is Alltel. Im totally new to Debian as well... Im doing this off of a live disc then I plan to install it once I know Ill be able to use my internet (its my only internet...) The card doesnt seem to be recognized other than as a storage drive or something, since its preloaded with the software for windows that comes with it.

I have a new hard-drive and have installed squeeze using CD 1. As my mobile broadband is the only way I can connect to the internet, how do I get it working on a fresh install?

Booting debian with xfce desktop (8.2, amd64) using a live cd of iso hybrid. While a wired network can be easily connected using network manager, it fails to recognize the mobile broadband (I am using a USB dongle). The network manager gui disappears after I select `Mobile Broadband'. Moreover, Code: Select allnmcli -p con does not recognize the gsm connection, but Code: Select allnmcli dev status returns that a USB gsm connection is present at ttyUSB3.

I have a fresh install of squeeze without a desktop environment. I then installed a basic gnome environment so I can choose my own apps ('apt-get install gdm3' pulls in enough for that). I then had to install some packages to get mobile broadband working:It all works fine until I disconnect it via Gnome network manager. I cannot reconnect using Gnome network manager because it doesn't show in the menu, but it does show while I'm connected. If I pull the dongle out and plug it in again, it reconnects without issue.I think I may be missing some packages, but I don't know what. I tried usb-modeswitch, but no change

1) does squeezy allows out of the box work for huwai dongle/ mobile broadband? (i never was able to configure mobile broadband in lenny thus i couldn't have kept lenny in my pc for more than 3 hours)
2) if i install squeezy (which status is 'testing' at the time being), do i need to reinstall squeezy once it becomes 'stable'?
3) any major difference between squeezy/debian and ubuntu?

I've just installed Debian 7.6.0 with KDE onto my laptop and now I want to connect to the internet with my Mobile Broadband dongle. When it's plugged in, I follow the icon in the taskbar to the Network Connections window.
Then I try to add a MBB instance with the pop-up assistant. After I've answered all the questions another pop-up tells me:-
"Insufficient privileges"
What's going wrong here and how do I get Debian to work the dongle (which works on my Desktop Debian 7.5.0 that uses Gnome)?

I just got an iPhone 4 and cannot get wired usb tethering to work. I had the same problem with my old phone, but I was able to wifi tether it without jailbreaking and don't want to have to jailbreak to tether (I don't mind if it is connected via cable, in fact I prefer it).
In both cases, though gnome network manager connects to the phone, and though the phone shows a current tethering connection, the ubuntu system (10.04 Lucid) is not able to load any web pages, despite showing a wired connection, and despite the fact that connection information on this wired connection seems complete (even with an ip address from the iphone and as it did with my old phone). It seems as if there is likely some simple setting that prevents me from using a usb source, though that is a guess.

I have Debian Squeeze AMD64 bit release. It finds my wired ethernet connection and ues itfine, although nothing shows up in the top right corner under the networking icon.
When I plug my mobile phone in (HTC S620) it always uses this as the main internet connection and then even if disconnected wont use my wired connection until I reboot.
Is there a way to stop it doing this or at least have my wired connction as an option so I can just click to reconnect to my ethernet connection?

I installed Debian Squeeze on my Acer AspireOne yesterday, and was delighted to see that my ZTE MF627 broadband dongle (from 3 UK) appeared to work "out of the box". I wasn't able to connect due to lack of signal, but the behaviour was as I expected. (The dongle is one with a "zero CD" that needs to be ejected before the modem itself can be accessed. Recent versions of udev are supposed to do this automagically.)
However, when I tried to use the dongle today, I was unable to make it work. It appears that udev is no longer ejecting the zero CD when it is inserted, but is instead detecting the modem as a (non-functioning) serial port.
Here is the output from /var/log/syslog for the "successful" attempt. Note the disconnection at 4769.479857 which is followed by reconnection as a different device:

I have read that Ubuntu 9.10 does not support Huawei EC1260 mobile broadband dongles. As a result, I am using Ubuntu 9.04 still now. How will I use it in 9.10? Or,will it be supported in 10.04 or any other later version?

In the previous versions of Fedora, the check for updates when connected through mobile broadband appeared disabled, which made sense as I don't want updates when connected through a mobile phone but will wait until I'm connected through either ethernet or wifi.
Took my laptop into work on Friiday (9am Friday is the time concert tickets go onsale). Connected to mobile broadband using Fedora 14 and got the updates available icon, surely this shouldn't happen?

I installed slackware on my laptop last night, :-) very happy. Can't wait to learn more about linux and even computers in general. I've already learnt heaps since entering the alternative operating system world. Anyways, i've got xfce up and running with slack now, created a new user 4 my self. And now i'd like to get some updates and stuff, but i need to use my mobile broadband. It's a telsta dongle If that changes the circumstances. How would i go about setting this up?

Im able to use nm-applet just fine to setup broadband card. Its a Sprint Sierra 598u. Im running Fedora 10 KDE version. Anyone know how to get it working? i tried the setup process but all it tells me is set up GPS or CDMA so i go CDMA for mine, but then it has some default name, and no providers, as the UBUNTU version did at least...i setup best i can but then after closing configs, i go to nm-applet icon in bottom-right and it doesn't show the mobile broadband connection, also any wireless connections don't work for some reason, but DO show up. just wont connect (which i got every so often when using ubuntu on the machine, was usually a switch off or restart away from fine

I tried at Fedora 10, didn't work, and then Ubuntu 9.0.4, in the hope of it may work, my CDMA 1x Mobile broadband.( it works well under Win XP). and it didn't work.And then it comes the Fedora 11, still the same problem.
Seems Linux cannot recoginize my CMDA 1x Mobile Bbroadband, becuase the newwork manager doesn't pop up with messages of detecting a new hardware.
And when I run the desmeg:
usb usb1: New USB device found, idVendor=1d6b, idProduct=0002
usb usb1: New USB device strings: Mfr=3, Product=2, SerialNumber=1
usb usb1: Product: EHCI Host Controller

usb usb1: SerialNumber: 0000:00:1d.7
usb usb1: configuration #1 chosen from 1 choice
hub 1-0:1.0: USB hub found
