I have a sprint usb 3g modem that plugs in via usb. I want to be able to share that Internet though an Ethernet port so I can connect another PC or my playstation so I can steam movies or just use the INTERNET on another puter. Iv tried lots of stuff I found on Internet like firestarter for one but it doesn't want to set up right.
How do I installed a sprint novatel 3g modem? I see sprint under the mobile broadband tab when I create a new connection, and it shows all the right information, but I never can connect.
find and install modem driver for the Alcatel X200 USB modem?
I've been all over the internet trying to locate Linux drivers but no success. Alcatel's website says is not supported, only in Windows. I'm sure there's gotta be a way to use the X200 in Linux.

I have a Compaq Presario 2100 laptop running Ubuntu 8.04LTS. It has a Conexant HSF modem/chipset, for which I bought the Linuxant HSF modem driver- 56K max.It is installed and it "functions",ie: it will connect to my ISP and I can start to browse (Firefox), but it will inevitably disconnect itself. At this point it is always down to "turtle speed of 4800bps".I have consulted with Linuxant Support and they suggested different modem init. strings - mainly different modulations - V34,V90,V92 w/variations. Nothing has made any signif. diff. They won't offer any further help.My question is: Could it be that Ubuntu 8.04 specifically, or Ubuntu of any version, is the source of the problem??
I have Knoppix 5.1.1 Live CD which loads up fine, and I was hoping to try the HSF driver with it, but I need to get Kernel Source pkg. and that will take 2+ hrs. to download by dialup , so haven't tried it yet.
Using Mint 9 and Ultimate and Fedora, where can I find a driver for a "3" external broadband modem? Mine is a USB device, 3G. I use a Pentium 4 dual core by ASUS. Dual boots.
I have a Dell 1525 laptop with an upgrade from 9.10 to 10.04 currently installed. My Sprint Merlin EX 720 auto connected through NM 0.7 /Karmic 9.10. After an upgrade to NM 0.8/Lucid 10.04 NM hangs and then disconnects. The card works perfectly after the upgrade when I use KPPP. I would like to get the card to be recognized right off the bat in NM like it did before.
I want to get an adsl 1 internal pci modem card for my home server. Netcomm's NB100 seems to be the most readily available. Does anyone know if there are ubuntu drivers for it? If not can you suggest a card that does and is easy to get a hold of?
i have some basic knowledge about device drivers.can any one tell how to write drivers for virtual modem, Actually my project is to implement communication between the two PCs by using two virtual modems. so for that i need to write the code for the virtual modem which it should understand all the AT commands exactly as physical modem and it should send/receive call and SMS.
I'm a Linux noob an I am really desperate for some top, top, top assistance. Been battling a while now with my iBurst USB modem driver and hope there is someone out there that can help? I have been through umpteen forums and threads and tried literally everything I read, but to no avail. I also realize there aren't many Ubuntu users that use the iBurst modem, but I am appealing to the few out there that do.
I have installed the open source ibriver-2.6.31 for my iBurst USB modem. Initially all went well with fast connection etc., connection everytime I boot, until... I started updates of 10.04 LTS, that is when I became aware, from the forums, that a re-install of the driver is required after every package update due to no "package management" in the iBdriver. what a pain in the proverbial to say the least!
Anyways.. now I am the stage where the driver is always installed, but...all of a sudden, I need to run pppoeconf and set up the driver after each boot to get connected!!!! If I can't find a solution it will force me back to Windoze7 which I dread to do! Can a script be written to pppoeconf (rp-pppoeconf.iso is loaded I think) automatically during boot perhaps?
So any top Linux hacker or "notsonoobasIam" user out there with a iBurst modem and similar pains & mis-fortunate experience please share your ideas and thoughts to correct this problem permanently for me please? (I should maybe mention that the other day I performed the "Grub2 Profile" exercise to try and speed up the boot time, this does not perhaps have something to do with the fact that I need to reconfigure in pppoeconf after every boot does it? I doubt it)
I have a Sprint U760 air card that apparently works under Linux. Sprint has a guide: "Wireless Mobile Broadband Setup Guide for Linux OS" that I am using to setup the air card. When I go through the procedure in the manual for "Setting Up PPP Using KPPP" the last task is to query the modem to see if Linux recognizes it. When I do the query I get a response "unable to open modem". I have tried going back through the PPP setup but still get the same response.
Since an upgrade from 10.10 to 11.04, all wireless devices for me in the plasma network manager applet are not functioning properly on a Dell Latitude E4310. Specific problem: No wireless networks appear in the plasma network manager applet. Manually-configured networks do not connect. A separate CDMA card appears, but cannot establish a connection. The CDMA card does function on 10.10 machines, and formerly worked on this machine. The only wireless 'network' that appears in the plasma network manager widget is 'hidden network'. Manually adding a network and checking "Connect Automatically" does nothing. I attempted a fresh install after the upgrade itself failed the work. There are no networks to click on, and selecting the device itself merely shows the status page.

Neither the CDMA card nor any wireless networks are working. If I take the exact same machine and boot from a disk with 10.10, both work.
I have a ZTE CDMA 1x Modem (Reliance Netconnect). The modem has a USB interface and it works as a PLUG-&-PLAY device on windows (and has a Flash Storage too for driver information for windows.) I am unable to find my modem on Linux machine so that i can use wvdial for getting connected to internet on my linux machine. This the dmesg output for my modem.
i cant connect with 3g modem.I've tried with vodafone and 3 ireland.THE SOFTWARE ICON IS ON SCREEN WITH BOTH MODEMS but when i try to run they cant find autorun files is there a comand to run these files their in media/3connect/autorun.exe.do i need permissions or something
I'm trying to find a command or application that will tell me what drivers my wifi card is using.
I've been googling for a while now and all I get in return for any query I try are articles about folks having wifi troubles.
The Ubuntu install works fine but my Windows install seems incapable of connecting. I've recently realised that I think it all started when I installed 10.04. I think 10.04 might have rewritten the firmware on the wifi module and now Windows can't connect. I'm not sure if this is possible but it is the only solution I can come up with considering that I've now tried 2 different version of Windows and they both have the same problem.
Anyway anyone know of a command or app I can use to discover which driver my card is using at the moment so that I can begin my investigations.
i'm running Kubuntu karmic and i've been using a 3G Huawei E1552 modem to connect to the internet, everything was going well when suddenly my modem stopped working. I've tried reconfiguring everything, i even reinstalled kubuntu from scratch with no success.Here's a part of my /var/log/debug

i am new using linux i install fedora 13 in dell mini 10 and i want to how i find and install the drivers for my laptop. I tried Ubuntu the last time and it has some hardware detection but i dont know how it made in fedora
I'm trying to find a driver for my wireless card (Atheros AR928X) and I think it's ath9k what I need. As far as I know there isn't a linux driver for it, so I installed ndiswrapper to use a windows driver instead. The problem is that when I type modprobe ndiswrapper I get "bash: modprobe: command not found" (even as root). I know I'm missing something about modprobe, but I can't find any help on google. Anyway, I installed ndisgtk next, because I thought it would be easier, but when I go to System> Administration> Windows Wireless Drivers I get a message "Unknown error".Do you have any ideas on how I'll make ndiswrapper work?
I have Ubuntu on my laptop and use a Zoom USB modem. I can only use the modem when running Windows and really hate to do that. Does anyone know where I might find a driver to run my modem on Ubuntu?
I am unable to find Atheros AR8132 PCI-E Ethernet Controller driver for CentOS which is installed on my netbook.
I contacted DELL to provide me the driver and they said that they do not support Linux on netbook and I have to arrange it myself.
I told them that I don't need help in installing I just need the driver file to which they said that they don't have driver for Linux.
NIC is getting detected and works fine on the same netbook (Am dual booting Windows7/CentOS) with Windows7
When I type: ls -l /dev/ it does not show up eth0. Same result with ifconfig. When I type lspci | grep net it does show up something like Atheros Communications AR8132 L1 PCI Gigabit .
How does Fedora recognise USB modem ? I have a USB Modem that works on Windows but It does not work on Fedora 10 linux. It is for Reliance Netconnect (India) and USB modem is HUAWEI EC 1260
I tried editing the wvdial.conf in /etc/wvdial.conf as
But it does not seem to work
I even tried changing the Modem = /dev/ttyUSB0 to Modem = /dev/ttyUSB2 but I get the message as --> Cannot open /dev/ttyUSB0: No such file or directory
I have a brand-x usb-modem and much to my suprise it had a .deb package to install the driver.The only problem is it fails during the "make" and I dont know enough about C to be able to fix the error. I'm not even sure what information is needed to help me with this chore.
