I am moving and am having AT&T DSL set up at my new place.. It is going to be set up next monday and I opted to not purchase their DSL modem (I wouldn't be there when it would be delivered and it would have been stolen most likely) So, anyone know of a DSL modem compatible with AT&T DSL that will work that I can pick up at a chain store? Wal-Mart, etc...
View 1 RepliesQ: How can I use at the same time two ADSL USB modems with pppd and pppoatm.so plugin?
I have the following scenario:
- Two ADSL USB modem correctly recognized by Linux.
- pppd configured with two different files, one for each ADSL (even if the two ADSL have the same parameters). Those files are /etc/ppp/peers/adsl1 and /etc/ppp/peers/adsl2
If I attach only one modem and then launch "pppd debug call adsl1" or "pppd debug call adsl2" everything works fine.
If instead I attach both modem in order to have two ppp interfaces, ppp0 and ppp1 I get the following behaviour:
- When launching "pppd debug call adsl1" the first modem connects correctly.
- When launching "pppd debug call adsl2" I get:
connect(8.35): Address already in use
That's because either adsl1 and adsl2 are trying to use the same modem.
So the question more specific question is: How can I specify which USB modem to use in pppoa ADSL connections?
With dialup modem it is possible to specify /dev/ttySx in peers files, but what about ADSL USB modems?
I'm looking with some multiple WAN links on an Ubuntu router box I am building for a project.The setup I'm trying to achieve is this:
eth0 WAN Link 1 through ADSL modem
USB Modem 1 WAN Link 2 for Failover
USB Modem 2 WAN Link 3 for Failover

I would like to say first and foremost that I have tried to lookup what I can find about this thing I am doing and most of the time all I have found are either un-replied posts or vaguely explained answers but here is what I want to do.I want to setup a small gateway for my new office using two 3G internet providers offering Huawei usb modems. So I would like to have two internet links active per time and have one LAN consuming from the two links. I have seen the phrase Load Balancing all over the place but they all show their examples using ethernet and static IP's. My providers give DHCP ip addresses so is there anything I need to know and can anyone point me in the direction of some tutorial or howto i can follow to do this?

I am looking to buy my own unlocked/never-locked mobile broadband modem, and I want it to work well on my 64-bit 10.04 Ubuntu system (triple-booting MacBook 4,1). Is there a list of mobile broadband modems supported in the linux kernel out there somewhere? I did try to find one myself, but no luck. The Huawei E220 looks good, but it is discontinued.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI have two systems located far from each other approximately 15 kilometers. They dont have communication between them only thing is phone.
The one system want to connect other using the telephone line using ADSL or simple modems. To transfer the files or to use VNC, RDP.
What linux, windows softwares presently supporting this feature. I Want to communicate between two systems without Internet but only with the phone lines.
establish the connection between two using phone line (without internet).
I tried to use multiple mobile broadband modems in ubuntu 10.10 and encounter a bug as follows:
When i plug in a new modem, all the attached modem is automatic go offline ( thus my connection is down), and try to redial back, sometime the redial is successful, sometime it's not.
It was working fine in ubuntu 9.10, plug in a new modem, all attached modems stay connected.
i have all kinds of usb cellular modems i want to try.i used 2 models of the sierra wireless modem, and one ZTE modem. when i connect the usb modem, i see /dev/ttyUSB* (1/2/3..).then, using minicom i can connect to the device and send AT Commands to communicate with it.when i tried another modem, which is not recognized by NetworkManager for example, i couldn't see any /dev/ttyUSB*, and i have no idea how can i send data to the device..my question is:
1) what's the driver role in creating those ttyUSB handles?
2) how can i just write to the usb device, the same like in serial ports for example?
3) so, if i were the best developer in the world, is it possible to communicate with an unknown usb modem? or in any case - i'm depended on the manufacturer driver?
I currently use Ubuntu 9.04. I have thought of upgrading to 10.04 for a long time, but I am unable to do so as I do not know if my mobile broadband device, Huawei EC1260, works out of the box in 10.04. In the Ubuntu wiki, I found that it was not compatible with 9.10 and a bug report had been already filed. A line is mentioned in the page, which tells us:
Declined for Lucid by Jeremy Foshee
So, does this mean that the problem is fixed in 10.04? Or, if it is incompatible, then, how will I configure it so that it can work? Now, many people may be considering that I might just download the CD image and try it out. Although my company has given me the device with 5 GB of free usage, but I have to show reasons for any file downloaded more than 15 MB.

if my wireless card is compatible with aircrack.
I've had way too many problems with my network card under linux and I'm looking to buy a new one because the money is worth the lack of headaches. My project: I'm breathing new life into my old, old pentium 4 computer by running Kubuntu Server on it and using it as a little samba filedump.
So I don't want to spend a lot on an ethernet card -- this computer is no prize. I just want the cheapest, most out-of-the-box-compatible-with-no-configuration card I can buy.
I started on Newegg (sorted by price: [URL]....CE&PageSize=20 ), and I've heard that cards based on the RealTek 8129/8139 chip may be compatible/cheap but I can't seem to find out ahead of time what chip the cards are based on.
I'm shopping for a Bluetooth dongle and I'd like to find one that "just plain works" with Lucid. I've searched and found a few posts about bluetooth, but nothing encouraging so far. Hopefully someone is using one and can vouch for its compatibility with Lucid.

View 1 Replies View RelatedI attempted a distribution upgrade from 8.04LTS (32 bit) to 10.04LTS (32 bit). Once converted, I had no wireless or wired internet, along with numerous other bugs. After relentless hours of trying to resolve the problems, I converted back to 8.04LTS and installed the b43 drivers; I have wireless, however, still no wired connection. I've provided the outputs of the "sudo lshw -C network" terminal command below both before conversion to 10.04 and after reversion back to 8.04LTS. You'll notice that the NIC is not even listed after reversion (this is the same output that 10.04LTS gave me as well).
1.) Does anyone know if the terminal command will identify the NIC if the NIC Driver (assuming it's tg3) is not installed?
2.) Does 8.04LTS and 10.04LTS have a pre-installed NIC driver that is not compatible with the bcm5705?
