Install huawei e367 u2
 

i am unable to install huawei e367 u2 usb dongle on fedora 17 64Bit.
when i plug my device it will not mounting as a CD drive (where i can get drivers and mobile partner).
im new to linux and kindly advice me how can we do this.
i need to install this from the beginning.

Find the ID...

The command "lsusb" with the USB modem plugged in will give you an ID number for the modem in the form "xxxx:xxxx". You can use the Internet to find out how to deal with converting his device, but Fedora has an RPM for USB_ModeSwitch, the program that is often used to convert a USB modem. Using the latest version is recommended.

After conversion, the modem has to make a call to a mobile broadband service provider. USB_ModeSwitch includes this function, but your service provider may have a particular specification that must be met, and you may have to configure the call up. Draisberghof maintains this mode switch project. Note that the site has a help forum.

As far as mounting the device is concerned, well it is good to wait until the computer is booted and then you plug the device in. Then all you have to do it run 'dmesg | tail' this will show you how the device is detected by the kernel. This will also tell you how the device is ennumarated (eg. sdb1 for me), once you have that you can log in as root and execute 'mount /dev/<path> /mnt'. Then 'cd /mnt'. You will then find the nessary drivers in it.
Hope this helps.

thanks for helping me. i used usb_modeswitch and now im able to connect my dongle to the pc. i can connect to the internet using NETWORK MANAGEMENT SETTINGS > MOBILE BROADBAND TAB. but mobile partner is not detecting my dongle. what can i do for that

I use...

I am using openSUSE 12.1 with KDE, but I use the Gnome NetworkManager applet to connect to a mobile broadband service with a USB modem. I uninstalled the KDE package for NetworkManager and installed the package NetworkManager-gnome.

The Gnome applet in my panel opens at boot, and by right clicking it, I find "Edit Connections". Then I can choose the mobile broadband option, and click to add. I follow the directions, find my service provider, and am sure to click save. The next time I plug in the USB modem, it is converted and configured automatically.

Note again that in my case the firm providing the connection doesn't require any dial-up function that USB_ModeSwitch doesn't provide. Your case may be different, but you can try to google for USB_ModeSwitch and your service to see if everything should be working by itself.
