Installing Hurricane9601 (H9601) USB ADSL Modem in Ubuntu
Hi .... I've been using Linux for sometime but I'm not a pro at it. Anyway, recently got this Prolink Modem and failed to get it installed in Intrepid.
I have the uncompiled Drivers supplied with the CD which i failed to compile using make. I get an error. This is what i get when i try to compile the driver. Quote:
Appreciate the help of all you Linux People out there. Thanks in advance. PS: i havent installed the firmware or anything as i just followed the instructions in the README file that was in the uncompiled driver folder. Should i install the firmware as well? if so HOW? |
AND also after lsusb i get
002 Device 005: ID 0915:8104 GlobeSpan, Inc. DSL-200 Modem |
find out the Chip on which modem is based.
also check out if linux headers installed or not. what type of Ubuntu Itrepid? cd or dvd installation? |
Quote:
I thinks headers are installed because the headers were required for another modem app called UbuDSL i used to use. |
well, now I can just suggest you start from here http://www.linuxquestions.org/questi...ml#post3227518

The modem doesnt even light up btw....but when i boot the PC the modem light blinks....but it never becomes steady....and if i remove and plug the USB cable again it doesnt light up.
|
dunno maybe it's really not conexant based modem.
|
thanx for the how to starhavest,well i tried in several places for a way to install that modem onvector and finally gave up once I got this speedtouch 330 modem,it's kind of a headacher itself,but finally managed to get it working.now i'v got this another old machine whih i installed vector,so it sould work fine.ill try it out and post any progress.from where i come from most people use this modem because it is one of the common modems supplied by the local isp.

The linux driver for prolink h9601 is eciadsl(google it)
PM me if you have a problem!(elakiri as harper) install it and the download the synch.bin achive which is also there and extract it to /etc/eciadsl/synch use the following parameters to configure using eciadsl-config-text command as root VID1=0915 PID1=8102 VID2=0915 PID2=8102 MODE=LLC_SNAP_RFC1483_BRIDGED_ETH_NO_FCS VCI=35 VPI=8 FIRMWARE=/etc/eciadsl/firmware00.bin SYNCH=gs7470_synch20.bin PPPD_USER=(username) PPPD_PASSWD= USE_DHCP=no USE_STATICIP=no STATICIP= GATEWAY= MODEM=Other MODEM_CHIPSET=GS7470 SYNCH_ALTIFACE=0 PPPOECI_ALTIFACE=0 PROVIDER=Other DNS1=203.115.0.46 DNS2=203.115.0.47 then to connect enter these commands as root eciadsl-start.keep entering this command until an error comes telling that a process called eciadsl-pppoeci is already running. then type ifconfig and you must see something like this(without any rx packets): tap0 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr d6:ab:d9:99:f5:2e inet6 addr: fe80::d4ab:d9ff:fe99:f52e/64 Scope:Link UP BROADCAST RUNNING MULTICAST MTU:1500 Metric:1 RX packets:18395 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0 TX packets:19493 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0 collisions:0 txqueuelen:500 RX bytes:17577091 (17.5 MB) TX bytes:2835186 (2.8 MB) if you dont see something like this then try eciadsl-start again until you see it. then after tap0 appears enter the command pppoeconf tap0 then it will scan some stuff and press enter for all those stuff enter you username and password when asked.after you are done , connect by typing pppoe-start happy surfing PM me if you have a problem!(elakiri as harper) -harindu perera |

Need clarification
Hi,
I am new to Linux and I want to install my Hurricane 9601 adsl modem in Ubuntu 12.04. I read your post but I am not clear what to do. I downloaded eciadsl. Now how can I install it? "install it and the download the synch.bin achive which is also there and extract it to /etc/eciadsl/synch use the following parameters to configure using eciadsl-config-text command as root" can you please explain the above statement more simply? Thanks |
