I am new to Linux and opensuse is lovely to me . However i have a problem, I dual boot windows and OpenSuse 10.3(because it plays mp3 out of the box) I actually tried newer versions but the problem is that I cant install this Huawei E1752 usb modem. I have failed people. Please help me. I need to use it for internet.
View 1 RepliesMy machine is running on a dual-boot Windows Vista/openSUSE 11.2 scenario. I have been trying to get my Huawei E1550 to work on Linux for the past few days trying numerous methods suggested in other forums from people with the same problem, but I have not produced any fruitful results.
Plugging in the USB modem results in Linux detecting it as a CD-ROM. I have installed usb_modeswitch in attempt to switch it to a modem, but Linux still fails to recognize it. Windows Device Manager and lsusb both give ProductID=1001 and VendorID=12d1 connected to USB1. I'm guessing since Windows detects the correct IDs, the Linux versions should also be correct. In any case, I ran usb_modeswitch with the Default IDs for /etc/usb_modeswitch.conf, which gave 0x1446 as the ProductID, not 0x1001. Upon running usb_modeswitch, the product ID could not be found so the program fails and quits asking if it's connected (and it is).
Just to test, I also ran wvdial which unsurprisingly did not detect the modem and could not send the init strings. All commands were done using root privileges. Also note that when after usb_modeswitch is run and upon plugging in the USB, NetworkManager pops up near the tray saying "attached" but still shows the device as a CD-ROM.
I am trying to connect my huawei e160 usb modem but it keeps failing and does not show on the Network Manager, checking on /var/log/messages this it what I get:

I have just upgraded from openSUSE 11.2 to openSUSE 11.3 using zypper. It seems to work fine except that umtsmon stopped to work, so for now my laptop has no connetion to internet at all. Here are some information about my settings:
I have used usb_modeswitch to make the device a modem. Am I right if I say that usb_modeswitch is a one time command, or does it swap the setting each time it is called? Anyhow lsusb states that the device is a modem. (All the time.) code...
I have a weird problem on my laptop. Everything works okey on PC though.
I'm using kNetworkManager on my OpenSuse 11.2 on PC.
Everything works fine there with the following settings:
1. Make a new GSM Connection in kNetworkManager and enter settings there
2. Edit etc/sysconfig/network/config file and set .....DNS_Policy from "auto" to ""
3. Enter openDNS to /etc/resolv.conf (nameserver xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx)
It works like that on my PC.
I did the same on my laptop. The modem connects fine, but the DNS'es ain't resolved. So skype etc will work, but no pages will open in Firefox for example.
What else should I need to do to make this work?
It's weird it works the SAME way on my PC, but doesn't on my laptop.

I recently got one of these modems and it had discovered very serious detection problems. I had been using one of the Cricket PCMCIA modems but it had a problem of dropping connections every 30 seconds or so. Anyway, this modem works a lot better but there is a trick to get it working.
Since the modem has a built-in flash card reader and flash memory containing the Windows software, when you first plug the device in, it is detected by the OS as a flash drive rather than a modem. If you try to configure the modem at this point, it will be impossible since no modem will have yet been detected.
In order to get the device to be detected as a modem, it needs to be "flipped". The following thread from the Ubuntu forums discusses the details of the problem and contains a link to a utility to "flip" the device: [ubuntu] HOWTO: Cricket Wireless A600 Broadband Modem - Ubuntu Forums
Once the device is flipped, I configured it using YAST / Network Devices / Modems. Mine is detected as /dev/tty/ACM0. I use Kinternet to connect, though Network Manager may also work, but I have not yet tested it.
I recently installed Open SUSE 11.2. It's a pretty cool OS. Anyway,sadly enough, I cannot access my internet connection via my USB internet modem. Worst of all, Open SUSE cannot detect the USB modem device. I am currently new to Linux and I may be overlooking something. I also clearly figured that Linux online is better than Linux offline from what I read from blogs and numerous posts. So in essence, I cannot fully appreciate the true power of Open SUSE 11.2 offline. Would there be a way to install my USB modem device?

I've just installed openSUSE 11.2 (KDE 4.3) on my Dell 1720 lapcrusher (a fresh install - had no space to install next to my old openSUSE 11.0, so had to wipe that). I have a huawei e169 (e620) that worked fine in 11.0 (after some initial trouble/configuring, details of which I cannot remember) using knetworkmanager, but try what I might in 11.2 I cannot get this HSDPA modem to connect to my ISP (Virgin Mobile Broadband in Brisbane Australia).
I'm looking for some advice on where to start - first up the modem is detected fine in KDE 4.3, I can setup a profile with the correct APN "VirginBroadband" and "blank" inserted for username/password, and PAP enabled and CHAP disabled - thats pretty much how it was setup under openSUSE 11.0, and it will try to connect but always will not authenticate - I'm not sure at which stage of authentication the process goes pear shaped. I've tried different combos of turning on/off compression/echo options etc, turning on/off MSCHAP/MSCHAP2, but to no avail.
Although my Huawei e200 usb stick is working well under ubuntu, its not working in openSUSE. I think the udev rule provided by the vendor is suited for a debian system and not for openSUSE. When i see the dmesg output, it adds driver for ttyUSB0 and as soon as it adds it also removes it. This sequence goes on continuing till i unplug my usb stick from my computer. The udev file(78-haier.rules) provided by the vendor is as follows:
ACTION=="add", SUBSYSTEMS=="usb",
ATTRS{idVendor}=="201e", ATTRS{idProduct}=="1008",
ATTRS{bNumInterfaces}==" 1",
RUN:="/usr/sbin/haier.sh 201e 1008"
ACTION=="add", SUBSYSTEMS=="usb",
DRIVERS=="option",
ATTRS{bInterfaceNumber}=="00",
SYMLINK="ttyMODEM"
The haier.sh script that the udev runs is as follows:
[Code]...
# may not use this driver if the product id is already compiled into another driver modprobe -a option echo "0x${VID} 0x${PID}" > /sys/bus/usb-serial/drivers/option1/new_id
I have a 3G modem Huawei e173s-6, the usb id is 12d1:1c0b. It's only detected as storage, not as modem. According to some tutorials I've found, I had to use usb_modeswitch and udev rules to make it automatically switch to modem mode, and usb id 12d1:1c05. I followed the tutorials, and the usb changes the id, but after the switch it is still recognized only as storage.
I have the suspicion that I have to add the driver to the kernel, since this is 11.3, but I haven't the slightest clue what to do. Does someone have experience making this modem work in 11.3? tutorial: USB_ModeSwitch ~ View topic - Huawei E173s working config

View 2 Replies View RelatedI would like to get my Huawei E169 (aka. Vodafone Mobile Connect K3520, E620 etc.) USB UMTS/3G modem running with my openSUSE 11.1 x86 installation on my MSI Wind U100. The GPRS/UMTS connection works perfectly fine with the stand-alone application Vodafone Mobile Connect for Linux. However, there's the drawback that this app overwrites /etc/resolv.conf (leads to DNS issues if I would like to connect via NetworkManager again) and doesn't disable the off-line mode for Firefox automatically. Consequently, I would like to use NetworkManager for the GPRS/UMTS connection, too.
The NetworkManager configuration dialogue (I'm using the GNOME applet) seems to recognize the plugged USB stick without any issues (I get a radio button for "Huawei E620 USB Modem" in the respective add connection wizard). So I've created the configuration for my provider and saved it. After that I've tried to connect via the applet. However, approx. 2 seconds after I selected the connection, the applet says "Network disconnected" (German: Netzwerkverbindung getrennt) and the stick also obviously doesn't get connected (visible via LED). I created several new connections with different names, replugged the stick, rebooted with and without the stick plugged, but without any success. I also installed the special RPM package which is recommended in Huawei UMTS USB Stick - openSUSE, but - of course - the corresponding 11.1 package. I also used the application manually and got the following result: Looking up for HUAWEI modem and switching modem to BBO 06

Can this time out of the serial command be the reason for the unsuccessful connection? And if yes, how can I force the system to wait longer here? Moreover, I'm wondering, that the GNOME NetworkManager applet doesn't allow me to enter the DNS entries for my GPRS/UMTS connection. Where can I add these entries manually or is that not needed?
I upgraded from 11.2 to 11.3 and with great disappointment I discovered that my HSPA modem, that worked out of the box under 11.2, work no more. At the first attempt NetworkManager is able to build the connection, I am able to use Yast to download new packages and online updating but at the first use of firefox the internet connection hangs up. Any attempt to disconnecting/reconnceting the usb stick gives the following error in the kernel echo:

I want to configure the Huawei E220 modem I recently bought in Fedora 10. I read lot of detail documents in the internet. All were interesting and explaining the wvdial.conf file. The problem I have is that, the file asks for the phone # to dial, username & a password. I don't have these information since my ISP didn't provide those. It works perfectly in Windows, in which above information are not needed, because when plugged in Windows, a software installation launches, which does the job to connect to the internet. So, is there a way to configure the modem to connect to the internet without those information. Because my ISP refuses to provide those, when I called there customer services.

I was absolutely dazzled, but my wife made me drop it after 20 days of not being able to get an internet connection.
I thought of trying again after so long to see if things had become easier for every Argentina user who has a Huawei connection (more than half of the country).
Unfortunately not.
The problem is the following:
I have a Huawei SmartAX MT810 usb-modem/router. In order to establish a connection, I need to run the following commands AS ROOT (which is why I cannot use a simple kde autostart bash script)
Code:
modprobe br2684 ; br2684ctl -c 0 -b -a 0.33 ; ifconfig nas0 up ; pppd call adsl
What's more, these commands cannot be run before the modem is operational, since they will end with an error.
In other distros I used to place these commands in /etc/rc.local. I tried placing them in /etc/rc.d/boot.local , but with no success: they are executed before the modem is operational.
In my complete ignorance of all things computer-related I thought it would be a good idea to place a caveat before the execution of the commands:
Code:
READYorNOT=$(dmesg | grep "modem operational") ; while [ "$READYorNOT" = "" ] ; do echo "Modem not operational" ; done
As a result the whole boot sequence gets stuck until I hit ctrl-c.
i tried to connect whit this key on opensuse 11.3 but i can't the device is recognized i start to connect it and the system show me "activating" but the light never comes blue , it's always green and it's impossible go to internet i use kde..
