Networking :: Running Tools After Changing The Internet Service Provider?
Dec 5, 2009
I am facing some problem while running my tools (electronics tools).Actually my company has changed the internet connection (internet provider). Everything is working fine but it changed my IP address (which is ok) but it also changed my HOSTNAME (which is really starnge for me).And the problem with my tools is that with old connection it's working fine but with new connection GUI mode is not working, only batch mode is working.

I have the Huawei E160 UMTS Stick with a German SIM from O2. Actually it is a prepaid tariff where I can buy a daily data flat rate. And I am running Ubuntu 10.04 UNR. I use SMS to order and confirm a daily data flat rate and I made this working with gammu. Not the most comfortable but a very reliable solution (see In order to charge the my account or to check my account balance I can either use the Original Huawei Software under Windows or I can put the SIM in my mobile and dial a number code. By entering the code '4444' my UMTS account gets recharged with 10 EUR (debited form my bank account). With the code '*101#' I can check the account balance.
What I want to do: I want to be able to recharge my account and check my account balance with Ubuntu, so without taking the SIM out and putting it into a mobile phone (and obviously without using the original Windows software).Using gammu in order to send the necessary codes did not work so far. When entering gammu --getussd *101# I get the following result:
Press Ctrl+C to break...
USSD received
Status : No action needed
[code]....

I live in Sweden and Denmark, and have a Swedish 3G internet provider called 3. They have a special roaming agreement with the Danish company named the same, so that I can surf for free both within the 3 net in Sweden and in Denmark. This has worked very smoothly until recently, when my modem connected to another company here in Denmark, and I was charged for the surfing per MB (a lot of money per MB, luckily I got a warning message in my browser and stopped).The company now says that they cannot block my modem from using all foreign networks except theirs, so they've blocked it from all surfing outside Sweden - which means I cannot surf in Denmark. If I was using Windows, their application however could block the unwanted networks...
But then I saw this field "Network" under "Advanced" in the Network Connections->Mobile Broadband box. What is that for? Can I tell it to connect only to e.g. networks called "3"? I've searched the net for any information about this textbox without success.I'm using Ubuntu 10.04 and the modem is a Huawei E122, which I've got to work with some usbmodeswitch fiddling.

How do I configure my modem without setting a service provider? When I try to configure my modem I can't get past the page for setting my internet provider. I have DSL and only use a modem for faxing. I'm running SUSE 11.3 32bit with KDE 4.5.2 and the modem is a BCM4212.

I am a newbie to linux and running ubuntu server 10.10 (no gui), I had it configured with a fixed ip address and all was fine till I changed internet poroviders and got issued with a new router.
I am trying to configure the server to reflect the new settings of the new service provider. here are the contents of /etc/network/interfaces
Code:
auto eth0
iface eth0 inet static
address 192.168.15.52
netmask 255.255.255.128
gateway 192.168.15.1
Just so I got this right can someone tell me if I am right here. address is the IP I wish to give to my server statically. and gateway is the ip of the router. When I try to ping the router I get
Code:
Ping 192.168.15.1 (192.168.15.1) 56(84) bytes of data.
From 192.168.15.1 icmp_seq=1 Destrination Host unreachable
When I try to ping the internet i get :
[Code]...
Is there anyone that can shed some light on where my problem may be. As i said before I got the new router I had been working with the server no problem.

Is there some software to measure Internet speed and show where the slowest element is?
I use OpenSuse 11.1 and KDE although Im happy to set up a user using Gnome.
Just recently my browsing speed dropped to almost nothing ...I used [url] to measure my speed and it gave a very slow result 30kb/sec ....usually its around 3000kb/sec. I rang my ISP's helpdesk and they told me my ADSL connection was fine. Two minutes later it was back to normal!
I know the internet speed varies from time to time ...I guess depending on how many are using it and for what. But..I suspect that my ISP was restricting my speed and Im looking for a tool that will tell me which part of the internet is the "slowest"
I would also welcome pointers to information about internet speed and what causes it to change.

I have currently installed Slackware 13.1 64bit version on a laptop Acer computer. This computer is connected to my cable service (comcast) modem via a dlink router. This computer has linux and Windows 7 dual boot systems installed. Initially I was able to connect to the internet with either linux or Windows. Now I cannot get on the internet with linux, but I can with windows.
I cannot even ping the address of my internet provider,which I can obtain through windows 7 by running the program ipconfig. When I ping the address, in linux,it gives me the message that "network is unreachable".I can ping it in windows 7.If I run on linux the program ifconfig, it does not even show an ethernet, like it does on my other computer connected to this network.I set the thing up initially with netconfig and used DHCP.As I said, initially it worked.I did not use this computer for some time, and now it has the previously described problems.Where should I start, trying to run this down?I have already done everything I can think of,like powered things off, and reset the cable modem etc.

Router: Linksys WRT54GS
NIC: D-Link DWA-645 (RangeBooster N 650 NoteBook Adapter)
i have successfully changed my MAC address. By doing:
ifconfig wlan0 down
ifconfig wlan0 hw ether AA:BB:CC:11:22:33
ifconfig wlan0 up
When I do:
ifconfig wlan0, it shows my new MAC address.
After changing, I cannot connect to the Internet. I have already disable mac filtering in my router. What did I miss out?

Failed to fetch [URL] Could not connect to 127.0.0.1:8118 (127.0.0.1). - connect (111 Connection refused)----when tor and polipo are not running---
Possible causes:
I just installed tor, privoxy, and polipo and set them up for web browsing anonymity. Other than that I don't recall making any system wide changes.
Other Info:
I can access the internet via a web browser and other programs just fine because i can manually edit each program's internet connection settings. apt-get works when tor and polipo are running. I have used tor and privoxy/polipo in the past and this has never been a problem, so I must have done something different this go around. Obviously I am not sure what that is. Attached are the applicable config files.

I have Ubuntu 10.04 LTS installed on a Dell Desktop with a USB Bluetooth dongle.
I have a bluetooth device, whose security is based upon searching not for the bluetooth service name but a renamed bluetooth service. The device comes with instructions on how to do it with a small subset of Windows XP machines but I feel like this should be a simple thing to do here.
Is there a simple way to either add an extra bluetooth service on a different name? Change the current bluetooth name? Ubuntu has a wiki that led me to the bluetooth preferences window and a services tab but that doesn't seem to exist in 10.04.
where to go in GUI or command line tools that will help with this?

I have an HP Deskjet D1460. I am using Ubuntu 10.04 and HPLIP 3.10.2 that came with the distro. I am in a plan of moving my windows PC to ubuntu in my bussiness, and this is the first of them. Trying to solve all the problems before converting a second one. All seems to work quite well and almost out of the box... and that is a huge step from the last distro i tryied 2 years ago. So, my difficulty now resides on the printing. I am using a small VFox program that manage some of the aspects of the bussiness, in wine. It works without problems, but... when I print, all the pages get printed like 1cm below than when it was printed under windows. The problem is, that I use the printer to fill some forms that came pre-printed, and now, I am printing over the other text instead of the white spaces. I read a little, and try to adjust the HWMargins and the ImageableArea in the ppd of /etc/cups/ppd/ but it was like if I was doing nothing. Do I miss a step? Do I need to restart a service or something after changing the ppd? The margings when using the printer gui from Ubuntu are all in 0, and for that i need like a minus something.

Today I have tested the networks at several schools in the area,and at the town hall. It is not possible to surf on www on any of these networks using a PC running Linux. My conclusion is that there has to be some kind of filtering of traffic that exclude PC's running Linux. From the same PC I can send and receive email, I can ping and trace (mtr) addresses on www, and I can view webpages that are on servers on the inside of the filtering-gateway. The filter used is InterScan Web Security Virtual Appliance from TrendMicro
I have also demonstrated for the admins at the town hall that using Linux-PC on a "clean" network, surfing is no problem. By doing these small tests I have demonstrated that Linux is not the problem.
Tomorrow I'm going to visit the network providers admins, so that they could see what happens when a PC running Linux tries to access www. What kind of things should I test to document, or find the problems? So far I have just used MTR to document slow respons, wget --no-proxy to document that www hangs and ends time out, ifconfig to show NiC settings, and route.. Could this be a problem with /etc/resolve.conf?
The network provider is the same company that refused to turn on IMAP on the exchange servers, resulting in 3 week without mail at our school. All the other schools had to upgrade Outlook in order to connect to the new exchange-server with MS MAPI settings. MS Gold partners are so nice...

I need a dev setup which is external to the box I work on at home. I.e. I need to build some form of PC capable of running basic dev tools / scm.Given its very basic needs, was thinking of finding a fanless, probably atom based, micro-itx solution. I.e. small, silent, can just sit somewhere all day with a nightly backup to a NAS. (it would be really cool then as well because I can throw it in a bag and take it places when I need to -- its wrong I get excited about that...).Just wandering if anyone has done anything similar?lightly worried about the performanceWas thinking something like the Shuttle XS35GT:but have a gut feeling I could build something better for 2/3's the price.
Friend suggested buying a simple netbook as its probably one of the cheaper ways to getting an atom powered system, and has a screen for setup. ll it needs to run is a web server, SVN/GIT, Trac, maven, hudson and artifactory. I.e. it does not need to be capable of streaming video content etc (i.e. its not a media box) for 1 user at a time. Projects are not going to be the smallest for home projects, but really in the grand scheme of things its going to be small.

I downloaded and installed Debian Squeeze from a CD (a 700~mb file), but I seem to be missing a lot of things; mainly any wireless internet tools! I searched through aptitude and I couldn't find any sort of package. Do all copies of Debian (I downloaded the CD-1 file from a http mirror) have network tools such as network-manager-gnome?

I searched and found several solution but those are distro specific. I need to find out if distro is running in live mode (from CD, USB) instead it's installed on hdisk. The solution should be independent of distribution.
