I've been all over the internet trying to locate Linux drivers but no success. Alcatel's website says is not supported, only in Windows. I'm sure there's gotta be a way to use the X200 in Linux.
i'm running Kubuntu karmic and i've been using a 3G Huawei E1552 modem to connect to the internet, everything was going well when suddenly my modem stopped working. I've tried reconfiguring everything, i even reinstalled kubuntu from scratch with no success.Here's a part of my /var/log/debug

I have installed the KDE spin and am liking it so far. Except for the fact that I cannot get onto the internet. I rely on this ZTE USB wireless modem for internet and that just would not get recognized in Fedora. Plus, my Windows installation is down and I would love to keep it that way if at all possible.
I have followed a few instructions on this particular problem. I have modified the menu.lst file to account for the usbmodserial and product. The usb_modeswitch program has also been installed and the usb_modeswitch.conf file has been edited with the values I got from the 'lsusb' command's output.
But the curious thing is that when I actually execute the usb_modeswitch command, I get a message saying that there are no drivers for the ZTE device. Which means that I cannot go onto the wvdialconf part of it at all. Basically at this point I dont have a modem, according to Fedora. But it does get recognized as a ZTE device. That tells me that there is something right about what I have done so far and may only need to do a few tweaks here and there.
PS - I am based out of India and this is a Tata Indicom Photon (NOT Photon Plus) connection for which I have a USB device which acts as a modem.
When I use Ubuntu, my DSL modem correctly gets the hostname I call my computer "mertensia", but I'm having issues with Fedora. Yet, when I look at the name assigned by the modem (using URL... in a web browser),I need the PC Name to be mertensia, because otherwise it will complicate how I ssh immensely.

View 1 Replies View RelatedFor F10 patched. I'm in Honduras. The local cell / Internet provider that covers Guatamala, Honduras, El Salvador, uses an HSDPA modem marked "GBC" and is also known as the "China Bird". It's a black usb stick that looks identical to the option unit, but its definitely not an option modem.
lsusb lists it as 1c9e:1001 with no text after it. It automounts as a disk drive with typical Windows software on it. Nothing ever shows up in /dev/ttyUSB*, as I believe the disk mount causes it to not try mounting it as a modem. Dismounting it also does no good.
I have a creative modem blaster V.92 which I know works because I have used it on windows and ubuntu how ever I am having some problems with F11 it sounds like its dialing okay and the box pops up that says please wait when I try to connect via the network manager thing but thats all it does the box never goes away and I've looked at the modem lights thing I added to my panel and it says its not sending or receiving anything and firefox doesnt work so I am not sure what I am doing wrong here.
I got an error with the default settings so I switched the device to ttys0 and set the baudrate according to what wvdialconf said was okay which also wont connect for some reason it hangs too.. I am confused here. Has anyone successfully set up a dial up connection in fedora 11
I recently upgraded to Fedora 11, and am having an issue with the USB modem (Novatel USB720) disconnecting almost immediately after it is connected. Sometimes it disconnects 30 seconds after it is connected, sometimes 2-3 minutes. And other times it stays connected for hours without a problem. I know the card is good as it works using Verizon Connection Manager software under Windows and never had this problem.
And, I am able to get to the Internet while it is connected, so it is passing traffic OK. I'm using the NetworkManager to connect the "Auto Mobile Broadband" connection. I've seen other posts on this very same issue, and I verified that pppd is called using the "lcp-echo-failure 0" and "lcp-echo-interval 0" options. But it seems that when it does disconnect, in /var/log/messages it says "LCP terminated by peer".
Below is an example of /var/log/messages where we can connect, then it immediately disconnects.

I have F9, F10, F11 and F12 installed along with WinXP on my desktop PC. I connect to the internet thru 56K dialup modem (USR-5610B). The earlier versions of Fedora, F9, F10 and F11, all can connect via dialup modem.
My F12 installation is augmented with the following rpms - kudzu-1.2.86.2.i686, libwvstreams-4.6-5.fc12.i686 and wvdial-1.60.10.fc12.i686 (and the rpm for USR-5610B modem)
Network Configuration GUI shows ppp0 (Modem) in the Common Active Profile
However, ppp0 does NOT show up in the Network Device Control GUI, AND ACTIVATE and DEACTIVATE buttons are GREYED-OUT.
The problem is that when I connect my phone to my machine FC11 x64 via USB and use the phone as a modem NetworkManager does not recognise the phone as a modem. The phone works well on my laptop which is FC11 32bit system, NetworkManager detects it and sets it up as eth2 and away I go, no problems at all. I would like to ask the community how can I go fault finding to find out why it does not work. #lsusb shows that the modem is being detected by the system but beyond this I don't know where to look and get things going.

My USB-modem and my freerunner phone is no longer recognized by fedora. Last time this happened I just reinstalld Fedora because I had no id�a what caused the problem. But now I recognized that virtualbox was the last package I installed before the problem occured.
I tried to uninstall virutalbox but the problem remained. Is there a way to reset all the network settings without reinstalling fedora?

I am trying to get a Vodafone USB modem to work - Huawei K3765 (which is a rebranded E169). It's supposed to be recognized by the kernel and just added through Network Manager, but - no luck. I also installed vodafone-mobile connect from here: [URL] (as well as the other packages). What happens when I start it - it doesn't see the modem. It's seen as a CD drive, and clicking "eject", "unmount" or "remove safely" on it doesn't help - it disappears, then several seconds later appears as a CD drive again.

I don't have any problems connecting to eth0 or wlan0 when I'm at work or when connecting to a variety of cable modems, but for some reason I can't connect to AT&T/Bellsouth's dsl modem at my house (can't connect directly, much less through my DI-524 D-Link wifi).Does anyone have any idea why? I've been through every setting I can think of and I've stayed on the phone with techsupport for AT&T and physically watched as they've pinged and reset my modem, so signal into the house/modem is good....and I can hit the modem's IP and go through all of the configuration settings and everything from Bellsouth says that I'm connected and online, but when I attempt to go to another website like google or yahoo or fedora.com, I get a message telling me "Server at ******** not found."After spending 2.5 hours on the phone last night with tech support, I came into the office tonight and hooked right up to TruVista's (cable) network.
View 5 Replies View RelatedThe problem is I have a wireless Belkin router which I can connect to, but after being connected for a few minutes the net disappears (cuts from the router) and my laptop will have to reconnect again to the router for internet to work again. After a few minutes (or seconds in some cases) the connectivity loss will happen again over an over.
How to fix this problem or some things I can try, I've tried updating to two different firmwares, two different channels and resetting the router. The biggest problem I find is that this happens on both my laptop, another laptop in the house and also my tablet PC but doesn't happen on two other laptops in the house, I've also tested with windows 7 and Ubuntu with my laptop.

After a bit of fighting interface works I can ping any domain name or ip address. I can even connect to web server via telnet, for example telnet www.org 80. I can see the response from Web server, but Mozilla says that it is offline, System Update says that no connection.
What can be the problem if manually I can connect but any Gnome GUI program says you are offline?
i want to ask a question. sometimes i use a gprs modem to connect to the net. the gprs modem uses the usb port. i've connected this pc to another machine through crossover cable. the problem is that when there are two active connections, firefox can't load anything. also how can i share the gprs modem with my other pc that is connected via crossover?
PS. in my active network connections it shows:
eth0- the NIC
and auto eth1 - the gprs modem
i have also tried to change the firefox preferences but to no avail.
Both my computers run on FC11.
I have a ZTE HSUPA USB Modem Model:MF636 which used to work great and then is not longer detected.
I am using Fedora 12 and was having problems with the modem not been properly detected and filed a bug, which turned not to be a problem of NetworkManager, but an issue with udev.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=603433
I followed instructions to edit /lib/udev/rules.d/61-option-modem-modeswitch.rules and then it worked fine.
Now the modem is again not properly detected. Here is a copy of the results from dmesg code...
I have tried restoring the file that I edited. It was back to the stated previusly reported. I also have tried to run an older kernel. Then I updated to the latest kernel available for Fedora 12. Nothing seems to work.
