V4.06.06.03 has proven to connect to an ISP without incident. My problems in Newport Beach were associated with the username I was using. For windows dial-up to earthlink internet provider we use "ELN\pcdpae", for linux we only use "pcdpae".
To install the modem, use the attached package with the following steps:
at the command prompt type:
ln -s /usr/src/linux-2.4.7-2 /usr/src/linux
this will create a link "linux" to the source code for the RF distribution of the 2.4.7 kernel. Our installer needs this link to work properly. RedFlag has a similar link called linux-2.4.
After the link is there, unpack the modem source code:
tar -xpzvf hsflinmodem-4.06.06.03.tar.gz
This line should be run from the directory containing the archive (ex: /usr/src/)
Next change into the directory:
cd hsflinmodem-4.06.06.03
Install the modem:
make install
Next configure the modem:
hsfconfig
Use the default settings for all, except the country of course. When you get to the country selection type "CHINA"
If successful the config tool will tell you that the modem is accessible at /dev/modem or /dev/ttyHSF0, or something similar (use the generic naming /dev/modem)
Switch back to the GUI (KDE) and run kppp
Create an ISP profile. To verify that the modem is working you can go to the third tab from the left and click on the query modem button (middle button of the three). If the modem is working, you should see the ATi commands being processed.
Once the ISP profile is complete, click OK and you should be ready to connect.
The RedFlag installations I went through were the first two options (top(compact) and middle(full)) The compact installation did not work for me. The make command was not accessible, so I reinstalled using the full option, then I had no more problems.
When pppd fails, there is an alert that pops up. I can not read the text, but I believe the box on the left says ok or cancel and the box on the right says log. If the debug pppd is not installed you will see another dialog box. Okay the request to install the debug pppd then try to connect again. The next failure will once again generate the alert, but this time when you click on the "log" button you should see what exactly went wrong as well as a recommendation for the user action. This is how I came across our username problem. |
