MTS Mblaze Modem - Not getting connected to Internet from Fedora 11


Hi All,

I have installed the 3 packages required for MTS Mblaze 3G Modem to get connected to the internet.

Quote:
1. usb_modeswitch
2. usb_modeswitch-data
3. wvdial
Here is the "/etc/wvdial.conf" file that gets generated when I do the "wvdialconf"

Code:
[Dialer Defaults]
Init1 = ATZ 
Init2 = ATQ0 V1 E1 S0=0 &C1 &D2 +FCLASS=0
Stupid Mode = yes 
Modem Type = Analog Modem
ISDN = 0 
Phone = #777
Modem = /dev/ttyUSB0
Username = internet@internet.mtsindia.in
Password = MTS 
Baud = 9600
Now the problem is when I run the wvdial, I get the following log:

Code:
[root@localhost factory]# wvdial
--> WvDial: Internet dialer version 1.60
--> Cannot get information for serial port.
--> Initializing modem.
--> Sending: ATZ
ATZ
OK
--> Sending: ATQ0 V1 E1 S0=0 &C1 &D2 +FCLASS=0
ATQ0 V1 E1 S0=0 &C1 &D2 +FCLASS=0
OK
--> Modem initialized.
--> Sending: ATDT#777
--> Waiting for carrier.
ATDT#777
CONNECT
--> Carrier detected.  Starting PPP immediately.
--> Starting pppd at Fri Feb 25 13:03:48 2011

--> pppd: [10][11]7[08]�>7[08]
--> remote IP address 10.212.64.1
--> pppd: [10][11]7[08]�>7[08]
--> primary   DNS address 10.216.126.132
--> pppd: [10][11]7[08]�>7[08]
--> secondary DNS address 10.216.254.132
--> pppd: [10][11]7[08]�>7[08]
But now when I open Mozilla or Google Chrome Internet Browsers, I am not able to connect.

Moreover, I also tried to ping to "www.google.com" but it is not pinging.

Can anybody help me out here...

Is it related to some Network Manager settings. As when I look at the Network Connection Icon, it shows CROSS i.e. not connected to any network...


Thanks for the help.

you are aware that fedora 11 is a DEAD version
and that there has been NO new software for it in over 8 months
No security fixes , NO nothing not even support .

the current version is Fedora 14 ( fedora 15 is in testing)

if you are going to use fedora then you DO NEED to stat current .Fedora release a new version EVERY 6 months
and support for any one version is only 13 months .

for fedora info you might want to read the fedora forum

Hi John,

Thanks for your prompt reply...

But I just wanted to check if anyone knows a way around as I do not want to upgrade because I am testing this wvdial application in my work place for a project....

But I surely will convey this to my manager though...

Do let me know if there is a way around though...


Thanks again...

Backup ‘/etc/resolv.conf’ and replace it with a link to ‘/var/run/ppp/resolv.conf’.

Code:
	# mv /etc/resolv.conf /etc/resolv.conf-orig
	# ln –s /var/run/ppp/resolv.conf /etc
Shutdown any alternative network devices used.

Code:
	# ifdown eth0
Add the following lines to this file "/etc/usb_modeswitch.conf"
Code:
	# Your 3G Modem Details
	DefaultVendor= <Enter_Vendor_ID>
	DefaultProduct= <Enter_Product_ID>
	TargetVendor= <Enter_Vendor_ID>
	TargetProduct= <Enter_Product_ID>
	MessageContent="5553424312345678c00000008000069f030000000000000000000000000000"  // this is for MTS Huawei 3G Modem. You have to search for the MessageContent for your 3G Modem or ask your 3G ISP.
Added the following lines to this file "/etc/udev/rules.d/72-huawei.rules"

Code:
	ACTION=="add", ATTRS{idVendor}=="12d1", ATTRS{idProduct}=="1446", RUN+="/usr/bin/usb_modeswitch"
Run the following command from the terminal BEFORE_YOU_INSERT_THE_3G_MODEM:

Code:
	# modprobe usbserial vendor=0x12d1 product=0x140b
Execute the wvdial command

Code:
	# wvdial
Press ‘CTRL+C’ TO_STOP_THE_CONNECTION and do not forget to restore your original ‘resolv.conf’ file afterward.


I am marking this post as SOLVED.
