[SOLVED] Issues with Mobile Broadband Connection ( Service Prov.-MTS MBlaze )

abhi.daemon · 12-11-2010, 05:01 AM

Hi All,

I am using Fedora 13. and had bought MTS Mblaze Mobile Broadband device.
One installer comes with this device for Fedora, I have installed it.
There were some issues while starting this application on fedora. But after seeing some threads for SELinux, it had been solved.

Now, when I run this software, a window appears. If i clicked connect, it does show connecting and once connected automatically firefox opens.

But i am not able to access internet. After some time software shows device is in sleep mode due to inactivity.
Network connectivity icon on launch panel on fedora shows network is connected.

Please somebody help me..I had similar problem with Mandriva 10..

Hello abhi.daemon

From the experience I had with my Huawei USB modem device.

You probably will have more luck using Sakis3G tool, here is the link:
http://www.sakis3g.org/

Installation help:
http://wiki.sakis3g.org/wiki/index.p...G_installation

Fedora usually comes with pppd, so I think you can rest about the pppd dependency.

Anyway the instructions are:

- Download the sakis3g ~200kb for your architecture at -> http://www.sakis3g.org/

- Copy it to /usr/bin folder(need to be ROOT)

Code:

cp sakis3g /usr/bin
# Please, change "sakis3g" for the location you actually have placed...

Now make it executable (ROOT)

Code:

chmod +x /usr/bin/sakis3g
# NOTE: Change sakis3g for the name of the file

Get the information of the device
Take my device as an example.

Code:

lsusb
# Will display something like:
# Bus 003 Device 001: ID 12d1:1010 Huawei Technologies Co., Ltd. E600 USB Modem

Now execute sakis3g it(ROOT as usual, but if on user mode will ask root pass. auto.)
Put the device and vendor information on it.
You can do on two different ways:

Code:

sakis3g -v 0x12d1 -p 0x1010
# -v stands for vendor and -p for product, the "0x" is needed because is an hexadecimal code.
## OR
# sakis3g MODEM="12d1:1010"

Now add a username and password(if you don't have, invent... the password limit is 4 numbers)

Code:

sakis3g -v 0x12d1 -p 0x1010 APN_USER="User_here" APN_PASS="0000"
# or sakis3g MODEM="12d1:1010" APN_USER="User_here" APN_PASS="0000"
# The password was invented can be anything.

Finally, execute sakis on interactive mode:

Code:

sakis3g --interactive -v 0x12d1 -p 0x1010 APN_USER="User_here" APN_PASS="0000"
# OR
sakis3g MODEM="12d1:1010" APN_USER="User_here" APN_PASS="0000"

And click connect... If lucky your on!

If not... try read the manual.

Code:

sakis3g man

Best of luck and credits for who helped me before.
