1) Turn on computer.
2) Plug in modem.
3) Ensure that the system recognizes the modem by checking the output of "dmesg". Cut and paste the following to be sure;
Code:
for BUSID in $(/sbin/lspci | awk '{ IGNORECASE=1 } /net/ { print $1 }'); do /sbin/lspci -s $BUSID -m; /sbin/lspci -s $BUSID -n; done
You may want to make sure the output for "ifconfig -a" changes (you should have a new device once you have plugged in the USB modem). If this still does not work, try the following websites;
