LinuxQuestions.org - Fedora Franklin CDU680 problem

Hi there,

I have adquire at work a new Franklin CDU-680 an usb wireless módem, that uses an EDVO network. I have tried to configure it to use it un my Fedora's box.

Info of my Linux Box:
Laptop Dell Precision M70
Linux Dist.: Fedora 7 (I need to configure it in a Fedora 8 PC too).
Kernel: 2.6.23.15-80.fc7

Here's the facts:

First I was searching in google how to configure this módem and have a lot of help, but I can't get it at all yet. The first thing I do is to see where is the device with lsusb.

Code:

# /sbin/lsusb

Bus 002 Device 001: ID 0000:0000  

Bus 005 Device 001: ID 0000:0000  

Bus 004 Device 006: ID 0458:0036 KYE Systems Corp. (Mouse Systems) 

Bus 004 Device 001: ID 0000:0000  

Bus 003 Device 014: ID 16d8:6803  

Bus 003 Device 001: ID 0000:0000  

Bus 001 Device 001: ID 0000:0000

The módem is conected ti de Bus 003 Device 001 and indicates me that the hex id vendor is 16d8 and the hex id product is 6803

Then, I have to include the module to the kernel whit modprobe.

Code:

# /sbin/modprobe usb_serial vendor=0x16d8 product=0x6803

Note that I put the values of vendor and product that I saw with the lusb command.

When I do that the first time it doesn't work. I found in a web page that is because I don't have the /dev/ttyUSB0 and /dev/ttyUSB1 devices either. I have to thanks to fmaq whit the commands to create them manually. Then, when I do the modprobe again it works.

Then, check if the module succefully added with dmesg.

Code:

# dmesg | grep ttyUSB

usb 3-1: generic converter now attached to ttyUSB0

That says that the modem is on /dev/ttyUSB0. Now I have to make the connection to the network with wvdial. And here is the problem. When I execute wvdialconf I get this:

Code:

# wvdialconf wvdial.conf

Scanning your serial ports for a modem.

ttyS0<*1>: ATQ0 V1 E1 -- failed with 9600 baud, next try: 115200 baud

ttyS0<*1>: ATQ0 V1 E1 -- and failed too at 115200, giving up.

Sorry, no modem was detected!  Is it in use by another program?

Did you configure it properly with setserial?



Please read the FAQ at http://open.nit.ca/wvdial/



If you still have problems, send mail to wvdial-list@lists.nit.ca.

I found that maybe helps to make a symbolic link to /dev/modem, because is the default value to wvdial and I try it.

Code:

# ln -s /dev/ttyUSB0 /dev/modem

And try again with wvdialconf but I get the same:

Code:

# wvdialconf wvdial.conf

With the diference of the first line.

I have tried to make a wvdial.conf file by manual, and I put it this information:

Code:

# cat /etc/wvdial.conf

[Dialer Defaults]

Modem=/dev/ttyUSB0

Phone = #[number_to_call]

Init1 =ATZ

Init2 = ATQ0 V1 E1 S0=0 &C1 &D2

Init3 =

Area Code =

Username = [my_user_name]

Password = [my_password]

Ask Password = 0

Dial Command = ATDT

Stupid Mode = 1

Compuserve = 0

Force Address =

Idle Seconds = 300

DialMessage1 =

DialMessage2 =

ISDN = 0

Auto DNS = 1

And when I try with wvdial I get this:

Code:

# wvdial

--> WvDial: Internet dialer version 1.54.0

--> Cannot get information for serial port.

--> Initializing modem.

--> Sending: ATZ

--> Sending: ATQ0

--> Re-Sending: ATZ

--> Modem not responding.

When I do the wvdialconf wvdial.conf command I this message: "Did you configure it properly with setserial?", and I have tried to use setserial to configure /dev/ttyUSB0, but when I eexcute it I get this:

Code:

# setserial /dev/ttyUSB0

Cannot get serial info: Invalid argument

Please, someone help me, I have tried all day without success.

Any help? Any ideas?

Thanks.

Note: Sorry about my english, is not my mother language. I speak spanish and this are some links that I get help whit this issue.
