how can i install sagem f@st 800 on fedora 8?

nic01 · 03-14-2008, 12:15 AM

can anyone provide the instractions on how to install the sagem fast 800 modem on my Fedora 8?thanks.

i already did the following steps:

1.tar zxfv ueagle-data-1.1.tar.gz

2.cd ueagle-data-1.1

3.sudo cp -a * /lib/firmware/ueagle-atm/

4.sudo gedit /etc/ppp/peers/ueagle-atm and gave
a.my adsl username
b.plugin pppoatm.so 8.35
c.noipdefault
d.usepeerdns
e.defaultroute
f.persist
g.noauth

5. also did correctly the next steps with chap and pap -secrets.
6. rebooted

Here i must say that the lights on my modem were all the time "on".
7.when i next give :sudo cat /var/log/messages | grep ueagle
it says among others "driver loaded" and "slobo2@otenet.gr"(which is my adsl username),isn't recognized in /etc/ppp/peers/ueagle atm destination file.

What am i doing wrong here ?

Hello
I use a Sagem F@st 800 E2 USB adsl modem.
Here is what I get in /var/log/messages.log :

Code:

Can you give the exact output concerning ueagle-atm in your /var/log/messages file ?

Welcome to LQ.
Please post exact quotes - follow berbae's example. All the ueagle-atm entries are useful.

Quote:

isn't recognized in atm destination file

... this means that your user name is not in the configuration file.

As root, open /etc/ppp/peers/ueagle in a text editor and add the following:

Code:

user "<your username>"
password "<your password>"
plugin pppoatm.so <VP>.<VC>
noipdefault
usepeerdns
defaultroute
persist
noauth
