AT&T future lineup shows two HSPA+ modems: Option 393 and Sierra Wireless Triple Lindy

AT&T (NYSE: T) is preparing to upgrade its 3G network to HSPA+ (also known as HSPA Evolution) to allow faster data speeds. And to make users sing along the updated network, they’ll need new “HSPA+ ready” products. That said, we’ve spotted two data cards in the carrier’s future lineup.

The first one is Option 393, classic USB-based modem, which we presume also comes with microSD memory card slot. At the maximum signal strength, users should be able to download at 14.4Mbps and upload at 5.76Mbps.

The other modem is Sierra Wireless “Triple Lindy,” a dual form factor ExpressCard/PCMCIA modem a la AirCard 402. Speed wise, this one should enable speeds of up to 21.1Mbps on downlink and up to 11.5Mbps on uplink. That’s pure theory at the moment, but who knows, maybe one of you live near AT&T’s antenna and will be able to come close to these speeds on his/her laptop. First, of course, we need to see AT&T rolling out HSPA+ upgrade – it’s easier afterwards…

Cricket launches UM185C USB modem; Offers it for free for limited time

Cricket has a new USB modem in its offering. It’s the UM185C, a tri-band USB modem with a swivel hinge. The device works on both Mac and PC computers and requires no CD for installation — all necessary drivers are on the memory of the modem.

The carrier is asking $139 for the device, which goes way down to free after instant savings of $89 and with a $50 mail-in rebate. That’s for limited time, only. A mobile broadband contract of at least $35 a month for existing, or $40 a month for new customers is also required…

Sprint Cuts Phone as Modem from Simply Everything Subscribers

Those of you who were getting comfortable with the breadth of Sprint (NYSE: S)’s Simply Everything plan and partaking in the odd smartphone tethering will be in for a rude interruption. Some heated discussion on the Sprint forums has revealed that phone as modem service is no longer available for Simply Everything customers, although a Sprint employee vehemently defends the decision, saying that PAM has always been an add-on, and anyone tethering up until now was doing so outside the purview of their contract. Sprint VP David Owens has confirmed the change and that there won’t be a PAM add-on available for Simply Everything any time soon. There are always workarounds, like My Tether for the Pre, and TetherBerry for BlackBerry (NSDQ: RIMM), but that’s more work than a lot of users would like to put in; clearly Sprint is more interested in hawking their mobile broadband access through WiMAX routers. It’s disappointing news for many customers, but it’s hard to blame Sprint for pushing 4G.

Rogers' Rocket Hub disguises 3G data and voice as mild-mannered home modem

Good news for Canadians who can't seem to get a decent internet plan for home. Rogers has unveiled a 3G station for residential use dubbed the Rocket Hub, and with it a number of jet propulsion-related puns that we'll be taking painstaking measures to avoid. It boasts 7.2Mbps HSPA, WiFi and ethernet out, and voice calls over UMTS. Makes sense since it's riding an Ericsson W3x core. The Upfront cost of hardware hasn't been disclosed yet, but plans start at $35 Canadian. Launch date (okay, we couldn't resist) is sometime later this month.

Sierra Wireless adds 2-in-1 HSPA+ AirCards to a lineup already fraught with action and danger

Sierra Wireless has just announced five new AirCard data cards and USB modems, including devices supporting HSPA+ frequencies. The AirCard 503, AirCard USB 308, and AirCard USB 309 all support peak download speeds of 21Mbps, with the former being a 2-in-1 PC card / ExpressCard device and the latter two being basically the same USB modem (except the first one supports 850MHz, 1900MHz, and 2100MHz frequencies, while AirCard USB 309 limits you to 900MHz and 2100MHz bands). If the raw excitement and glamor of HSPA+ speeds are more than you (or your budget) can handle, the company is also introducing a couple plain ol' HSPA cards with respectable peak downloads of 7.2Mbps and peak uploads of 5.76Mbps. The AirCard USB 301 supports 850MHz and 2100 MHz bands, while the AirCard USB 302 does its thing in the 900MHz and 2100MHz range. Scheduled to begin shipping in the fourth quarter of this year for prices to be announced. PR after the break.

Samsung and TeliaSonera bringing LTE to vikings in 2010

Scandinavian folks tend to be a pretty cheerful bunch during the summer, and now Swedes and Norwegians will have reason to smile through the cold dark winters as well, with Samsung announcing an agreement to provide TeliaSonera with "mobile broadband devices for commercial service next year." This agreement relates to Sammy's Kalmia 4G USB modem and adds to the Swedish operator's LTE push, which already counts Ericsson and Huawei among the contracted hardware providers. So that's 100Mbps mobile broadband, coming to a snow-covered nation near you within the next dozen months or so. All we would ask of our viking friends now is that they remember their world-conquering ways of the past and start spreading that goodness globally. Come on, it's our right! Full press release after the break.

Samsung boasts of first commercial LTE modem for cellphones

We can't say that we're absolutely certain that Samsung's not fibbing a little with its latest claim, particularly since NXP rolled out a multi-mode LTE / HSPA / etc. cellular modem way back in June of last year. Whatever the case, we're just stoked to see yet another big player drinking the LTE Kool-Aid, with Sammy developing what it calls the "first LTE modem that complies with the latest standards of the 3rd Generation Partnership Project (3GPP)." The modem, which is being labeled the Kalmia for now, supports download rates of up to 100Mbps and upload speeds around 50Mbps within the 20MHz frequency band. In other words, if your future handset is equipped with this chipset, you could theoretically stream four HD movies with no buffering. Now, if only Samsung would announce a new mobile to go along with this, we'd really have reason to carouse.

How to Fix the Xbox 360 “MTU Too Low” Problem with the Qwest Actiontec Q1000 DSL Modem

NOTE: If you are coming to this article after Googling the subject in frustration, here’s the quick-fix for you: Upgrade the modem’s firmware to QAQ01-31.00L.33 or later and you should be fine.

Qwest has been rolling their new high-speed fiber-optic DSL service out throughout Denver and Arizona for the last year or so (it’s not fiber-to-the-house, but with 40mbps available, who cares?). I’ve been a happy Qwest DSL client for about 3 years now — no complaints and more importantly — no outages.

When the fiber service started rolling out with speeds of 12mbps and 20mbps offered, I would reflexively crap my pants and throw myself into jealous rages because it wasn’t available in my area — that all changed last week.

Not only has Qwest rolled out fiber in my area, they also rolled out a new 40mbps/20mbps service as well for $115/mo — that doesn’t have any bearing on this post, it’s just awesome.

Anyway, I ordered the 20mbps/5mbps service which required an upgrade to the Actiontec Q1000 Qwest-branded modem. This is a Gigabit-capable 4-port modem with Wireless-N capabilities — I’ve had Actiontec equipment in the past from Qwest and it was garbage — replaced within months by 2wire which worked much better. Fortunately after a week with this Q1000 it looks like Actiontec may have cleaned some things up, the modem works fine with some basic firewall, port forwarding and advanced routing rules — this was something the older Actiontec modem that Qwest was selling couldn’t no — no joke, it literally couldn’t employ port forwarding rules AND the firewall at the same time — fail.

Anyway, after getting the Q1000 setup and the service enabled, I hooked my Xbox 360 via a WAP (I’ll give a review of later) and when I tried to get the Xbox online, I would get an error similar to the following:

Unable to connect to Xbox live, the MTU setting of your router is less than 1365 and must be increased. Please fix the problem and try again.

There is literally no MTU setting anywhere on the Q1000 — and reading through some other threads online, folks had suggestions ranging from disabling uPnP all the way to manually changing the MTU settings on your Windows machine (yea, I have no idea how they thought that would help).

As the threads went on, more and more folks said upgrading the firmware did the trick for them and magically the Xbox 360 started working again without any problems.

This sounded easy enough, but believe it or not, I was actually confused by the Upgrade Firmware screen on the Q1000 — on the older 2wire I had, there was a button that I clicked that would check the firmware against the remotely available version and then upgrade it if available — it also automatically upgraded itself constantly too (which got annoying after a while).

On the Q1000, there is simply a Download button and you end up with a file that has no identifying name or type, just firmware.

Believe it or not, this s all fine — and it worked great. So I’ll give you the instructions on how to update your firmware incase you are bamboozled by this — and get your Xbox 360 back online:

1. Go to 192.168.0.1 (or whatever IP address you gave your modem)
2. Login to your modem — I believe the default credentials are “admin” or “admin”/”admin” or just try password “admin” — it’s one of those.
3. Go to Utilities
4. Click Upgrade Firmware in the left menu
5. Click the Download button in section #1 — you will likely be prompted to safe a file named “firmware”, save it anywhere on your local computer.
6. Now scroll down to section #2, and click the Browse button and select that “firmware” file you saved.
7. Now scroll down to section #3, and click the Upgrade Firmware button, this will upload the file you just saved and apply it then restart the modem

And you should be all set. Let us know if you run into any problems. Happy gaming!

Use iPhone as a Wireless Modem

The 3G feature in iPhone is more than great for internet users. You can browse the web and download files while traveling without a Modem. Like the modem’s do, the full potential of high speed internet is utilized by the 3G feature on the iPhone. With some very nice features in the iPhone, it would be nice if you can integrate some of these great features with your PC, especially the 3G feature. Even with great features such as touch screen, web browsing etc., these can’t match the experience you get while using a laptop. So if you can embed this 3G feature in your Laptop, you will be able to use the high speed internet with the help of 3G (using the iPhone as wireless modem). So here is how you can get the 3G feature of iPhone in your laptop by using the iPhone as wireless modem and experience the high speed internet on your laptop while traveling…

While traveling, if you don’t have access to your WiFi network and you have access to the 3G feature, you will be beaming if you have installed the iPhone Modem application. iPhone Modem will help you to get the high speed internet on your laptop by making your iphone to work as a modem for it. iPhone Modem is free to try and is available for a small 10$ price. There is no wrong in buying this app for those users (who own an iPhone 3G) that really need some high speed internet connectivity while traveling. At least that 10$ is cheap compared to an external wireless modem.

Since iPhone Modem’s terms and conditions does not fully comply with that of Apple’s, you need to jailbreak the iPhone in order to use this iPhone Modem. Jailbreaking iPhones opens up a wide range of possibilities in front of you. But you need to understand the fact that jailbreaking the iphones will make them lose it’s warranty and support. So do it at your own risk!

How to Jail Break the iPhone

A program called QuickPwn will do this tedious job very easily. The only thing you need to do is follow the instructions given by QuickPwn very carefully. QuickPwn is available for both Mac and Windows operating systems.

Download QuickPwn

Install iPhoneModem

The Apple iPhone jailbreaking tool, QuickPwn will be installed as an application named Cydia. Cydia is really an online store, where you can get all the applications that are not available through the official App Store.

Search for ” iPhoneModem by Addition ” in there and install it. Now download the iPhone Modem helper application on your laptop.

Now you need to setup the network.

Run the iPhone Modem helper application you have just installed on your laptop and press connect. Now this helper application (iPhone Modem) will setup an hoc network which can be accessed through the iPhone. The default network created by the program will not have a password, so you need to change it via the Preferences in the iPhone Modem helper application for setting a password. You also need to turn on the Wi-Fi network in your iPhone. Now open the iPhone settings and take Wi-Fi. Select the network you have created before (using iPhone Modem) (here the default one is ” iPhoneModem ” if you have named it some thing else select it accordingly). Enter the password (if you have created it). Finally, open the application in your iPhone. All the settings will be configured automatically. After a few seconds both the application’s (iPhoneModem on iPhone and the iPhone helper application on your laptop) will confirm that the connection has been established properly. Done! You can now get the high speed internet facility with the help of the iPhone 3G in your laptop by using your iPhone as a wireless modem.

types of internet connections

IAs technology grows, so does our need for bigger, better and faster. Over the years, the way content is presented via the Web has changed drastically. Ten years ago being able to center bold, colored text was something to admire, while today Flash, animations, online gaming, database-driven Web sites, e-commerce and virtual offices — to name but a few — are becoming standards. The need for speed has changed the options available to consumers and businesses alike in terms of how and how fast we can connect to the Internet.

While technology changes at a rapid pace, so do Internet connections. The connection speeds listed below represent a snapshot of general average to maximum speeds at the time of publication. This is no doubt will change over time and Internet connection speeds also vary between Internet Service Providers (ISP).

Analog (up to 56k)
Also called dial-up access, it is both economical and slow. Using a modem connected to your PC, users connect to the Internet when the computer dials a phone number (which is provided by your ISP) and connects to the network. Dial-up is an analog connection because data is sent over an analog, public telephone network. The modem converts received analog data to digital and vise versa. Because dial-up access uses normal telephone lines the quality of the connection is not always good and data rates are limited.

• Typical Dial-up connection speeds range from 2400 bps to 56 Kbps.

ISDN
Integrated services digital network (ISDN) is an international communications standard for sending voice, video, and data over digital telephone lines or normal telephone wires.

• Typical ISDN speeds range from 64 Kbps to 128 Kbps.

B-ISDN
Broadband ISDN is similar in function to ISDN but it transfers data over fiber optic telephone lines, not normal telephone wires. SONET is the physical transport backbone of B-ISDN. Broadband ISDN has not been widely implemented.

DSL
DSL is also called an always on connection because it uses existing 2-wire copper telephone line connected to the premise and will not tie up your phone as a dial-up connection does. There is no need to dial-in to your ISP as DSL is always on. The two main categories of DSL for home subscribers are called ADSL and SDSL.

ADSL
ADSL is the most commonly deployed types of DSL in North America. Short for asymmetric digital subscriber line ADSL supports data rates of from 1.5 to 9 Mbps when receiving data (known as the downstream rate) and from 16 to 640 Kbps when sending data (known as the upstream rate). ADSL requires a special ADSL modem.
SDSL
SDSL is still more common in Europe. Short for symmetric digital subscriber line, a technology that allows more data to be sent over existing copper telephone lines (POTS). SDSL supports data rates up to 3 Mbps. SDSL works by sending digital pulses in the high-frequency area of telephone wires and can not operate simultaneously with voice connections over the same wires. SDSL requires a special SDSL modem. SDSL is called symmetric because it supports the same data rates for upstream and downstream traffic.

VDSL
Very High DSL (VDSL) is a DSL technology that offers fast data rates over relatively short distances — the shorter the distance, the faster the connection rate.

• All types of DSL technologies are collectively referred to as xDSL.

• xDSL connection speeds range from 128 Kbps to 8 Mbps.

Cable
Through the use of a cable modem you can have a broadband Internet connection that is designed to operate over cable TV lines. Cable Internet works by using TV channel space for data transmission, with certain channels used for downstream transmission, and other channels for upstream transmission. Because the coaxial cable used by cable TV provides much greater bandwidth than telephone lines, a cable modem can be used to achieve extremely fast access.

• Cable speeds range from 512 Kbps to 20 Mbps.

Wireless Internet Connections
Wireless Internet, or wireless broadband is one of the newest Internet connection types. Instead of using telephone or cable networks for your Internet connection, you use radio frequency bands. Wireless Internet provides an always-on connection which can be accessed from anywhere — as long as you geographically within a network coverage area. Wireless access is still considered to be relatively new, and it may be difficult to find a wireless service provider in some areas. It is typically more expensive and mainly available in metropolitan areas.

• See the Wireless Networking Standards page of Webopedia for data rates, Modulation schemes, Security, and More info on Wireless networking.

T-1 Lines
T-1 lines are a popular leased line option for businesses connecting to the Internet and for Internet Service Providers (ISPs) connecting to the Internet backbone. It is a dedicated phone connection supporting data rates of 1.544Mbps. A T-1 line actually consists of 24 individual channels, each of which supports 64Kbits per second. Each 64Kbit/second channel can be configured to carry voice or data traffic. Most telephone companies allow you to buy just one or some of these individual channels. This is known as as fractional T-1 access.

Bonded T-1
A bonded T-1 is two or more T-1 lines that have been joined (bonded) together to increase bandwidth. Where a single T-1 provides approximately 1.5Mbps, two bonded T1s provide 3Mbps or 46 channels for voice or data. Two bonded T-1s allow you to use the full bandwidth of 3Mbps where two individual T-1s can still only use a maximum of 1.5Mbps at one time. To be bonded the T-1 must run into the same router at the end, meaning they must run to the same ISP.

• T-1 Lines support speeds of 1.544 Mbps

• Fractional T-1 speeds are 64 Kbps per channel (up to 1.544 Mbps), depending on number of leased channels.

• Typical Bonded T-1 (two bonded T-1 lines) speed is around 3 Mbps.

T-3 Lines
T-3 lines are dedicated phone connections supporting data rates of about 43 to 45 Mbps. It too is a popular leased line option. A T-3 line actually consists of 672 individual channels, each of which supports 64 Kbps. T-3 lines are used mainly by Internet Service Providers (ISPs) connecting to the Internet backbone and for the backbone itself.

• Typical T-3 supports speeds ranging from 43 to 45 Mbps.

Satellite
Internet over Satellite (IoS) allows a user to access the Internet via a satellite that orbits the earth. A satellite is placed at a static point above the earth's surface, in a fixed position. Because of the enormous distances signals must travel from the earth up to the satellite and back again, IoS is slightly slower than high-speed terrestrial connections over copper or fiber optic cables.

• Typical Internet over Satellite connection speeds (standard IP services) average around 492 up to 512 Kbps.

Portable Devices Make Affordable High-Speed Internet Access Possible

Alexander Bell making the first telephone call

Edinburg, VA — Shenandoah Telecommunications Company (Shentel), a Sprint PCS affiliate of Sprint Nextel, recently announced that 85% of its customers in the mid-Atlantic region now have access to EVDO (Evolution Data Optimized), a wireless technology designed for Internet access, data-sized applications. EVDO is commonly referred to as 3G or third generation.

Currently, Shentel offers EVDO service to approximately 2.5 million Sprint users in its coverage region from Harrisonburg, Va. to Harrisburg, Pa., delivering a major benefit to those living in rural areas that are unable to received DSL (Digital Subscriber Line) at their home. Until the emergence of EVDO, persons without DSL had only two Internet options: (1) slow, dial-up service or (2) costly satellite providers. Of course, EVDO also makes possible broadband Internet access for cellular phone applications on the Sprint Mobile Broadband Network.

EVDO technology works similarly to a cell phone in that it relies on signals from a wireless tower to achieve connectivity. With EVDO, subscribers do not need a physical connection, such as a phone or a cable line; rather, they rely on EVDO modems or “aircards” to receive the wireless signal that connects them to the Internet.

7Bends has been taking advantage of this new EVDO technology since June of this year through a Sprint PCS subscription which makes possible remote Internet access in nearly every part of the valley that receives standard cell phone service. It makes possible posting articles remotely from events and locations throughout the region, as well as checking on email, site traffic, and general research in putting together articles and proposals.

Sprint subscribers can access EVDO in one of three ways:

USB Modem: a device that plugs into a computer’s USB (Universal Serial Bus) port.

PCS DIA Cards: a credit card–sized application that slides into older laptop models.

Mi-Fi: a battery-operated, standalone device that sits next to laptops, netbooks, iPod Touch or Wii devices and translates incoming 3G radio waves into a Wi-Fi network. The device, which enables up to five users to connect to the Internet at the same time, also allows access to the hotspot’s GPS functionality, which can be used to connect to mapping and location-based services.

“Sprint PCS customers must subscribe to a data-type plan, such as the ‘Simply Everything’ plan, to utilize these EVDO devices,” says Brian Brooks, Director of Sales for Sprint. He estimates that “approximately 60% of Sprint customers in Shentel’s region are choosing data-type plans.”

Brooks continues, “Growing demand for broadband Internet access has made expanding EVDO coverage a major Shentel focus over the past year and a half. To date, 316 of our 453 towers are equipped with EVDO radios, and we are looking to add even more. Shentel conducts ongoing research to identify areas where customers are underperforming in terms of network capability on the landline side. I believe this practice distinguishes us from other carriers because we ask customers where they want and need service.”

Brooks has offered 7Bends the use of one of the new Mi-Fi units in order to check it out for ourselves, to which we acquiesced immediately, the testing of new hardware/ software being a house specialty that we particularly enjoy here at 7Bends.

Check back with us for a user report on the new Mi-Fi technology within the regional system.

Cisco announced a new Wireless-N Modem Router, “Dual Band Wireless-N ADSL2+ Modem Gigabit Router (WAG320N)”, comes with a built-in high-speed ADSL2+ Modem for a fast, "Always On" connection to the Internet. Wireless connections use Wireless-N technology for fast data transfers, and the four built-in 10/100 Ethernet ports supply high-speed connections to your wired devices. Wireless-N technology allows to share one broadband Internet connection. Wireless-N, Wi-Fi Internet connection and integrated modem plus 4, high speed Gigabit Ethernet ports. What the product name doesn’t reveal is the ability to make USB storage devices accessible across the network, courtesy of an integrated StorageLink port, which makes all music, video and photos stored on that device accessible to uPnP compatible media players.

openSUSE 11.2 RC1: ZTE HSDPA/3G Modem

I’ve been using this HSDPA USB modem since it was openSUSE 11.1 (and it’s tested also on openSUSE 11.2 Milestone 8), no other easy way except through wvdial. Hopefully it will be easier using KnetworkManager-KDE4 on openSUSE 11.2 in final release stage. [updated: October 28] It is now OK to use KNetworkManager as mobile Internet connection manager (i did not know when this feature’s announced for the first time tough).

It’s said here nicely how to use it on openSUSE 11.1, now I’m just taking a little workaround on openSUSE 11.2 RC1.

Here are the steps to make an Internet connection with this ZTE MF626 Mobile USB modem on openSUSE 11.2 RC1:

Plug it to your USB interface

Just to make sure that it is detected well by the kernel (tail -f /var/log/messages, see my complete log here):

[   94.324031] usb 1-3: new high speed USB device using ehci_hcd and address 3

[   94.450274] usb 1-3: New USB device found, idVendor=19d2, idProduct=2000

[   94.450286] usb 1-3: New USB device strings: Mfr=2, Product=1, \

[   94.450296] usb 1-3: Product: ZTE CDMA Technologies MSM

[   94.450303] usb 1-3: Manufacturer: ZTE,Incorporated

[   94.450454] usb 1-3: configuration #1 chosen from 1 choice

[   94.452491] scsi2 : SCSI emulation for USB Mass Storage devices

[   94.474102] usb-storage: device found at 3

[   94.474106] usb-storage: waiting for device to settle before scanning

[   95.477571] scsi 2:0:0:0: CD-ROM  ZTE  USB SCSI CD-ROM  2.31 PQ: 0 ANSI: 2

[   95.498640] sr1: scsi-1 drive

[   95.499839] sr 2:0:0:0: Attached scsi CD-ROM sr1

[   95.500442] sr 2:0:0:0: Attached scsi generic sg2 type 5

[   95.501517] usb-storage: device scan complete

It’s detected as an optical device (bolt), not a HSDPA modem. Here’s other properties of the device (through lsusb command):

Bus 001 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0002 Linux Foundation 2.0 root hub

Bus 001 Device 003: ID 19d2:2000 ONDA Communication S.p.A.

Bus 002 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0001 Linux Foundation 1.1 root hub

Bus 003 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0001 Linux Foundation 1.1 root hub

Bus 003 Device 002: ID 058f:9254 Alcor Micro Corp. Hub

Bus 004 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0001 Linux Foundation 1.1 root hub

Bus 005 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0001 Linux Foundation 1.1 root hub

Then we can see KDE 4 Device Notifier tells us a new device is coming:

From openSUSE

Change It to Be a Modem Seen by The Kernel

Because openSUSE (its kernel) does not recognize well[*] that it is a modem, so we have to let the kernel knows it. The usual way is to convert it to be a serial device interface through usb_modeswitch command.

Before we proceed, we have to make sure that we have the proper configuration: usb_modeswitch.conf (copy the file to /etc ).

[*] The kernel should handle it without problem (grep MF626 /usr/src/linux-2.6.31.3-1/drivers/usb/serial/option.c):

#define ZTE_PRODUCT_MF626                       0x0031

{ USB_DEVICE_AND_INTERFACE_INFO(ZTE_VENDOR_ID, ZTE_PRODUCT_MF626, \

0xff, 0xff, 0xff) },

Looks like it is a bug(?).

Then run usb_modeswitch on CLI by using user root (the usb_modswitch package is already installed, at least I’ve seen it since openSUSE 11.1). You can see the output below.

* usb_modeswitch: tool for controlling "flip flop" mode USB devices

* Version 0.9.6 (C) Josua Dietze 2009

* Works with libusb 0.1.12 and probably other versions

Looking for target devices

No target device found

Looking for default devices

Found default devices (1)

Prepare switching, accessing latest device

Looking for active default driver to detach it

OK, driver found ("dummy")

OK, Driver "dummy" successfully detached

Setting up communication with device

Trying to send the message

OK, message successfully sent.

-> See /proc/bus/usb/devices (or call lsusb) for changes. Bye

And it’s detected as an modem (through lsusb: bolt), not an optical device anymore:

Bus 001 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0002 Linux Foundation 2.0 root hub

Bus 001 Device 004: ID 19d2:0031 ONDA Communication S.p.A.

Bus 002 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0001 Linux Foundation 1.1 root hub

Bus 003 Device 002: ID 058f:9254 Alcor Micro Corp. Hub

Bus 004 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0001 Linux Foundation 1.1 root hub

Bus 005 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0001 Linux Foundation 1.1 root hub

Here’s my quoted log (end here’s the understandable/complete one):

and the NetworkManager’s log says it found the modem, although nm-tool says some strange issues(?). Fortunately, the good news is KNetworkManager knows it’s a modem exists on the system:

From openSUSE

It will be a lot easier to setup it through KNetworkManager, even it failed (i’ll tell you further on next post).

Dial it up!

[updated: October 28] The easiest way (GUI) to do this is by using KNetworkManager, as i told earlier (first paragraph) on this post.

Because KnetworkManager-kde4 could not brings the connection properly, so i choose wvdial instead (here’s the example configuration file, APN=indosatm2). Remember that this file will be different with your needs (depends on what ISP, APN, username and password used, and other stuffs). The safety way is to use wvdialconf tool.

Make sure that the line has:

Modem = /dev/ttyUSB2

My wvdial’s log:

--> WvDial: Internet dialer version 1.60

--> Cannot get information for serial port.

--> Initializing modem.

Clearwire Demonstrates WiMAX Roaming Capabilities

Clearwire International, LLC, the operating subsidiary of Clearwire Corporation, announced on Friday together with Aicent Inc. that they had made an important step in the international WiMAX roaming area with the successful completion of the first roaming connection between WiMAX networks. The duo demonstrated the inter-network roaming connection using a USB modem and a CLEAR 4G WiMAX service username and password, through which access to a WiMAX network in Taiwan was gained.

According to the two companies, the demonstration shows how easily a CLEAR 4G WiMAX user is able to gain access to a network abroad using Aicent’s WiMAX Roaming eXchange (WRX). “The future promise of WiMAX stretches beyond national borders to offer mobile data users the ability to connect wirelessly, at broadband speeds, wherever they may travel across the globe,” Ali Tabassi, Clearwire’s senior vice president of Global Ecosystem and Standards, said. “The ability of WiMAX operators to work cooperatively in order to create seamless, simple and reliable international interoperability, as we have successfully demonstrated through Aicent’s facilities, will be crucial to realizing the tremendous social and economic potential of a truly connected world.”

WiMAX, as many of you might already know, is one of the standards on which next-generation wireless networks are based. The technology is said to support true 4G connectivity both on mobile and fixed, wireless networks. There is already a series of carriers around the world deploying the technology in their countries, and some of them already announced the availability of their services. Moreover, one should also know that there is already a wide range of devices that features support not only for WiMAX, but also for multiple radios, including WiMAX+Wi-Fi, WiMAX+EVDO and WiMAX+GSM. According to Aicent, it is already working with a series of 3G operators around the world to commercially deliver global and inter-standard roaming to the market.

“The entire communications industry stands on the precipice of immense change,” Lynn Liu, president and CEO of Aicent, added. “People are traveling with great ease and more often than not bringing with them devices that need to connect to networks. There are important technical challenges to overcome to enable people to have ‘anywhere, anytime access’ to these important, often critical, data networking connections. Aicent is fortunate to work with leaders like Clearwire to bring the innovations that will ultimately result in a worldwide ubiquitous WiMAX network.”
