Help: 3G card no longer working under Ubuntu 7.04 Feisty Fawn?
Hi all,
I previously used my 3g card (Huawei E620) successfully on Ubuntu 6.06 (and also under VMWare/Windows). I recently upgraded my system to Ubuntu 7.04 Feisty Fawn and can no longer get my 3g to work! I don't remember if I did anything special under 6.06 to make it work..?
Under linux, using the usual wvdial.conf setup as suggested by Tazz_tux and many others, I don't even get passed the AT+CPIN command -- keep getting "ERROR". (and therefore subsequent init commands also fail). ATZ does report "OK" and ATI shows the correct manufacturer (HUAWEI) so /dev/ttyUSB0 is working..
Under VMWare, Windows doesn't even pick up the card as it did before!, but I just want it to work under Linux for now..
Has anyone been able to get 3G to work on Ubuntu 7.04?
Thanks a lot!!!
Here's some troubleshooting info in case it helps:
