You are not giving us any useful information about your problem.

We are unlikely to have a MF636 to play with, so, unless you tell us more about what you are doing, I don't think we can tell you what to try next.

The link I gave you has further links. Perhaps you should read those as well.

I trying follow up the tutorial which you linked before everything setup except I can't insert any command when I connect to dongle through hyperterminal. The output from previous my post that only one thing when I get connection on COM port as was mentioned in tutorial. Maybe have another way to disable CDROM loading on start up.

Searching on +ZPASR: "Limited Service"

Gave me this link: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1147685&page=5

from which it looks as though your modem is now functioning as a modem (and presumably the CD rom is now swiched off). You no longer need win or hyperterminal.

What is its USB ID listed as now? (You'll need to plug it into linux to find out).
Also, please try to give us some basic background information (for example, what is your distro of linux?).

Ok, it hasn't been switched.

Now I know you are running Centos ( would it have been that much trouble to let us know which version / release number? ) I can safely say I'd like to get out of here, as I am running Debian-based distros, and yours is Red Hat based. Networking is handled very differently by each of them.

Anyway I searched on ID 19d2:2000 ONDA Communication Red Hat for you and found this link:
http://www.linuxforums.org/forum/wir...dora-10-a.html

which is marked as [SOLVED], so it probably has the answer you need. If not, you might re-search using the above terms, and try another link.

[EDIT]I have re-read your posts, and the HOWTO link I gave you in post #2.
This is difficult fo me as I do not have a MF636 but here goes

From the link:
Quote:
Using a Windows machine, plug in the USB device and go through the short install wizard. Once done, close the Rogers app that starts up,
Q1- Did you close (not minimise, or anything else) that Rogers app?

Quote:
then head into the Device Manager (Control Panel -> System -> Device Manager).

Under the Ports section, find the COM port that's connected to the USB modem (ignore the Diagnostics one).

Connect to that COM port through Hyperterminal, found in the Accessories area of the Start Menu. Connection parameters are
Q2 - Did you connect to the right COM Port?
Quote:
The connection parameters are
Bits per Second: 115200
Data bits: 8
Parity: None
Stop bits: 1
Flow Control: None
Q3 - Did you do this?
Code:
Once connected, type the following commands:

Code:
AT+ZOPRT=5
AT+ZCDRUN=8
This tells the modem not to use CD mode when it's first plugged into a computer. Now exit Hypterterminal and remove the USB modem. You're done with Windows.
It should be working.
[/EDIT]

So, all you had to do was follow the instructions, exactly?

Or was there something else?
