Hello,

i have successfully connected to my 3g net work via sakis3g using the huwai 3g usbmodem. but pages are not coming.

here are the connection stats

btw, my /etc/resolve.conf is empty.
also sakis3g does not accpet blank username and password.
so i had to type username for username and pass for password.

Huh...as of a couple days ago in your other thread, you said you weren't able to install the usb_modeswitch program, which would have prevented you from connecting.
You don't give us any details here...what version/distro of Linux are you using? What have you done/tried? Can you ping anything on the internet, like "ping www.google.com"?? "ping 8.8.8.8"?? Results?

If your resolv.conf is empty, you don't have any way to resolve hostnames, since you're not pointed to any DNS servers. If you can ping addresses, you just need to populate your resolv.conf with whatever your provider tells you to.

Hai tbOne,

i am on centos 6.5.

huh, you remember my other threads a

i found on a google search that we must supply a user name and password for sakis3g to connect.
all this days i was trying blank user name and pass. so it is saying "failed to connect". last night i tried with
username = username and password=pass and it connected.

any way without modeswitch installed, it connects. i was using the built in switch modem function in sakis 3g. may be that had actually switched the modem from cd mode. any way, ill try the suggestion in other thread.

could you kindly tell the format in which i should add the dns server address 8.8.8.8 (which is google's i think) to /etc/resolve.conf ?

Thank you for your support.

DNS is the problem. i have added nameserver 8.8.8.8 to resolv.conf and net connection works charm and infact i am posting this reply from my centos lap

also i think i did not even need usbmodeswitch at all. becase sakis seems to be switch the modem automatically.

bye.
