Ubuntu Networking :: Connect To Mobile Broad Band Using Terminal?
Oct 4, 2010
is there a command (set of) which i could use to connect my USB modem while in recovery mode?
what happened?
well, i tried installing Drivers for my ATI VGA and then uninstaled them (in order to install the edgers drivers). soon after the reboot i found out my key board n mouse is not recognized in GUI.
i found a little work around here

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

sometimes our ADSL connection gives up and we are left without internet connection for days until the problem gets fixed. I mean by this problem along the phone line. It affects all machines that connect to the internet through a Netgear WIFI Modem Router. I recently tried an alternative when this happens is to use a USB Huawei Mobile Broadband UMTS connection which works when you insert it in 1 laptop. Is there a way i could get the Netgear WIFI modem router to connect on that usb stick or PC that is online on that usb stick and give access to other machines that will want to connect to the web ?

Just loaded Ubuntu 9.10 on a Dell 5100, (XP finally got the bsod) I have verizon mobile broadband, all was very good until I realized I cannot connect wirelessly. The usb modem was not recognized, there is no indication of any wireless connection. There is no icon and nothing happens when the usb modem is plugged in. I have been working on this for hrs & hrs. I am a complete novice on Linux, but CompT1 A certified on PC's

Im able to use nm-applet just fine to setup broadband card. Its a Sprint Sierra 598u. Im running Fedora 10 KDE version. Anyone know how to get it working? i tried the setup process but all it tells me is set up GPS or CDMA so i go CDMA for mine, but then it has some default name, and no providers, as the UBUNTU version did at least...i setup best i can but then after closing configs, i go to nm-applet icon in bottom-right and it doesn't show the mobile broadband connection, also any wireless connections don't work for some reason, but DO show up. just wont connect (which i got every so often when using ubuntu on the machine, was usually a switch off or restart away from fine

Since 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.

I have been using Broadcam Wi-Fi cards for years and always have problems getting them to work well with Linux. Not too long ago ( 6 months) I replaced my broadcom card with an Intel Pro/Wireless 4965 card. Wi-fi is 1000% better now. Connects very well and well connect to systems that I could not ever see before. So I said get an Intel card and toss your Broadcom card away and start demanding that your next computer have an Intel card as these cards have native support in the Linux kernel.

My home networking consists of a slackware box, running iptables with a dual NIC. That's the firewall. I have a Netgear FSM 7352S, which is a level 3 switch, which I am currently just using as a switch. Clients are numerous PCs and a couple of networked printers.
The "firewall" machine is also a file server.
Here are the issues I could use some pointers on:
I'd like to assure that the VOIP adapters get priority, assuring QOS, particularly voice quality.
I'd like to provide reasonable priority for video streaming, such as hulu and other sources, that the kids use.
I'd like bulk data transfers (like backing up partitions) to the file server that runs iptables, and acts as the firewall/gateway for a cable internet connection. It would be good to be able to do this without impacting VOIP and video streaming.

After some wonderful days with fedora with my CDMA mobile internet connection (the only connection where I live) NetworkManager can't connect anymore.
I tried to delete the settings and rewrite them without success.
I have A Novatel Ovation U720 CDMA/EDVO USB modem.
I can connect with wnXP and kubuntu, but can't connect with fedora anymore.
I wish to make the definitive move from kubuntu to fedora... but I should wait.

I 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.)

I'm not a new user to ubuntu but I'm stuck with a driver issue on a wireless adapter upgrade for ubuntu 10.04 lucid lynx. I'm running an acer aspire am1201-e1622a with amd athlon x2 64 bit processor, however i'm only running the 32 bit version of lucid lynx. The following are a few outputs of some commands that might assist in finding the proper driver. Before though i will tell you what i have done.
I have installed a few different drivers from windows wireless driver installer such as the xp and vista 32 and 64 bit versions with no success in the computer actually recognizing that i have a wireless adapter installed. The windows wireless driver installer said that hardware was present but i was unable to scan for networks or even see that i had a choice to do that. This meaning that it didn't show i had wireless capabilities in my network manager. i tested this with gnome network manager which is the default manager for 10.04 and also with wicd with no success.
Following these tests i attempted to install a driver from source following the instructions on another forum. This allowed me to manually turn on the wireless adapter but i was still unable to find any networks. This meaning that wicd was able to see that i had a wireless adapter installed but it for some reason was unable to see any wireless networks around. I'm 100% sure my router is in range and that it is configured correctly. I have 5 other computers connect to this router along with some of them being ubuntu.

I am having a small issue with my SSH usage. I have a main PC OS 9.10 that has a wired connection to the wireless router. My EEEPC 904HD is a wireless connection to the same router.
I use my main PC as my music store and of a night I sometimes listen to this via my EEEPC using the 'connect to server' icon. This has been the norm for some time.
Now of late my connection is being refused. Initially I thought it was to do with the SSH file of trusted connections as from time to time I have had to delete this file as rebooting of the router may have altered the IP of my machine. This usually solves the problem.
But I now have to use terminal to
Code:
ssh 192.168.?.?
I then have to confirm the connection and use the password to confirm fully. After that I can then use the GUI to get into my main PC, by inputting the IP, port, folder, user name and password, as usual.
Am I missing something? Nothing has been changed by me to have caused this so far as I know. I also have 2 folders set to share via samba over the network which works perfectly these folders are accessible by others on my home network. I use SSH for myself to fully access my folders on my PC from the EEEPC.

I'm trying to connect to a PPTP VPN service located in UK (I think) and everything seems to set to the right values. I've checked and double checked the gateway address, user name and password. But every time all I get is a brief message 'vpn connection XXXX failed'. Is there any way to know what is wrong? Is there any log file, or is it possible to connect to a VPN server from the terminal?

More for my own posterity than anything else, I thought I'd document here the way to get to eDesktop through linux (debian, ubuntu) at the University of West Florida (UWF), since they appear to only support Windows through their documentation on the University web site, and the link through Argus (the secure web site) doesn't work in Linux. This is sometimes needed to use the University resources (libraries and computer programs) from remote locations, and otherwise a google search is fruitless. I had to have a guy in the computer science department show me how to do it.This may apply for other Universities with similar setups.
