!! Modules |

|
|
|
5 |
On older systems you may need to manually set some module parameters etc. This doesn't seem to have been necessary since Ubuntu Dapper Drake at least, possibly earlier. |

* Insert your wireless card and be sure that your computer recognizes it as a USB device. Look in dmesg for it. Once you have verified that it is recognized by your system, proceed to step 2. |

!! PPP Scripts |
|
|
17 |
|
|
|
18 |
For PPP to work, you'll need to create two files: |
|
|
19 |
|
|
|
20 |
The first is /etc/ppp/peers/1xevdo: |
|
|
21 |
<verbatim> |
|
|
22 |
lcp-echo-interval 0 |
|
|
23 |
ttyUSB0 |
|
|
24 |
115200 |
|
|
25 |
debug |
|
|
26 |
noauth |
|
|
27 |
defaultroute |
|
|
28 |
usepeerdns |
|
|
29 |
user USERNAME |
|
|
30 |
show-password |
|
|
31 |
crtscts |
|
|
32 |
lock |
|
|
33 |
connect '/usr/sbin/chat -v -t3 -f /etc/chatscripts/1xevdo' |
|
|
34 |
</verbatim> |
|
|
35 |
|
|
|
36 |
The second is /etc/chatscripts/1xevdo |
|
|
37 |
<verbatim> |
|
|
38 |
'' 'AT' |
|
|
39 |
'OK' 'ATE0V1&F&D2&C1&C2S0=0' |
|
|
40 |
'OK' 'ATE0V1' |
|
|
41 |
'OK' 'ATS7=60' |
|
|
42 |
'OK' 'ATDT#777' |
|
|
43 |
</verbatim> |
|
|
44 |
|
|
|
45 |
You'll also need to stick your username and password in /etc/ppp/pap-secrets. Make sure to update USERNAME in /etc/ppp/peers/1xevdo as well. |
|
|
46 |
|
|
|
47 |
In NZ, the username is mobile@jamamobile and the password is telecom. This will be different for other networks! |
|
|
48 |
<verbatim> |
|
|
49 |
echo "mobile@jamamobile * telecom * >> /etc/ppp/pap-secrets" |
|
|
50 |
</verbatim> |
