I am going to the T-Mobile store to get a new web connect lap top stick for my Aspire Netbook. The netbook has Ubuntu 10.04 LTS, will this web connect stick work with the netbook? What driver does it use for the T-Mobile web connect?
View 1 RepliesSince my recent re-conversion into Ubuntu, I noticed Network-Manager now has mobile broadband support out of the box. Splendid!
I've been using my Huawei (Vodafone) modem since around two weeks, and so far it's been great, except for a little detail: sometimes, them modem simply won't work. I plug it in, "cd" drive (where the Vodafone Mobile Connect files are) shows up, but no "Vodafone" on Network-Manager.
I believe this has something to do with settings the modem may leave behind after each use, but I'm quite newb, so.
when i open up to configure bluetooth it says i don't have any plugins available and when i try to search for appliences from my phone it cant recognise anything. Please help me! I want to transfer mp3 music from my laptop to my phone. I am using Linux Mint 9.

That means that you do have keyboard in that mode & there are no seriously misconfigured packages. It's the 'netroot' menu selection & don't use 'sudo' in that mode as you are in a root shell. And while there, ensure that you have established a connection (ping [URL]), and then:
# ping ubuntu.com
[if this works, then proceed with the rest]
# apt-get update
# apt-get upgrade
# apt-get install -f

View 1 Replies View RelatedI have a Sony TZ270N running Ubuntu 10.04 splendidly. The Sprint Mobile Broadband works great, but it's a bit cumbersome to activate. Specifically, to get it to work I need to:
echo 0 > /sys/devices/platform/sony-laptop/wwanpower
sleep 5
echo 1 > /sys/devices/platform/sony-laptop/wwanpower
Then I wait another five seconds, right-click on the networking icon, choose "Enable mobile broadband", then left-click on the networking icon, and choose "Connect to Sprint Connection". I do this multiple times a day, and it's just a bit of a pain, especially when in a hurry. Accordingly, I'd like to script it so I can do the whole thing with a single command.
I've already put the above echo statements into a script and it works great; is there any way to script the actual start of the PPP session itself -- with the caveat that I'd like the networking icon to accurately reflect the latest state?
(In other words, I don't want to bypass the networking icon and just launch the PPP session in the background -- I want it to show that I'm connected, and still let me manage the connection via the icon after connected.)
In ubuntu 9.10, I connect the mobile device and a icon appears in desktop, but it doesn't start and doesn't connect. I went to "network connections" -> mobile broadband -> add -> select contry, bla bla bla ->insert PIN->apply

View 1 Replies View RelatedI'm using Ubuntu since some month and lovin it. Only one thing with Rhythmbox and my HTC mobile phone running Win mobile 6.1 is annoying: The mobile device is never recognised as a music player nor as a usb device so I can't load music via Rhythmbox. Ubuntu recognises it as umts-modem which I like and would like to maintain. But is there any way to load music on it at the same time? I've already tried different settings on the devices usb-to-pc settings menu, but this only switches on and off the modem functionality but doesn't make ubuntu recognise the device as usb or music player.
View 5 Replies View RelatedI am trying to connect to my server at work through a VPN connection. I installed the PPTP VPN Connection Manager and configured the connection using the server's IP address and my user and password. When I click on the VPN connection in network manager, nothing happens. Do I need to install something else or is there an easier way to do this?
With my Windows 7 machine, it automatically connects using just the IP address and username and password. I was hoping to find an easy way to do the same in ubuntu.

Just reinstalled ubuntu 10.10 x86 on an old laptop.
The wireless doesn't seem to work and I have no idea how to solve this.
In gnome I can see NetworkManager display the network ESSID.
I have entered the key but no success, it tries to connect and then times out after about 1-2 mins.
I have tried to change the encryption from WPA2, to WPA to WEP to nothing but the same issue.
In a terminal/shell running ifconfig/iwconfig I can see eth1 as the networkinterface.
How can I investigate this further. If there was an IRQ collission or something it would not be showing the ESSID right?
I'm using Ubuntu 9.10 and mobile Samsung SGH 610. The bluetooth is on in both and I can browse the mobile phones' directories from the laptop. But if I try sending a photo from mobile to laptop, it says connection failed every time. Both laptop and mobile are able to recognize each other and I can pair with the laptop successfully.
