I am trying to the Telecom Sierra Wireless USB modem working but nothing. This is what I’ve done:
I plugged the Sierra Wireless CDMA 3G USB modem. On a terminal session "modinfo sierra" shows that a driver *is* already in the system.
Visited http://www.sierrawireless.com/faq/ShowFAQ.aspx?ID=601 and downloaded the scripts. Unpacked those and copied cdma and cdma_chat to /etc/ppp/peers.
Then opening a terminal:
su
gedit cdma
Commented out noauth and added username and password. Save and close.
I then ran "pppd call cdma" and got the following:
Dialing...
Serial connection established.
using channel 6
using interface ppp0
Connecting ppp0 <--> /dev/ttyUSB0
PAP authentication succeeded
Protocol-Reject for 'Compression Control Protocol' received
Cannot determine ethernet address for proxy ARP
local IP address 166.179.151.199
remote IP address 166.179.144.1
primary DNS address 202.27.158.40
secondary DNS address 202.27.156.72
script /etc/ppp/ip-up started
script /etc/ppp/ip-up finished, status = 0x0
And that's it... No connectivity on other programs...
Any ideas?
