A connection is established. This seems not to be the problem. It is shown with ifconfig as ppp0.
I cannot ping 8.8.8.8, at first I supposed that is due to filtering icmp packages by the provider. But this is not the case. When I have a connection here with Windows I can ping 8.8.8.8 So I think either the connection does not work or I have a firewall working (but didn't configure one). Here the ouput of "pppd call umts debug nodetach" Code:
thinkpad:~# pppd call umts debug nodetach When I try to access a website, it seems that nameresolution works, but the browser times out after a while. Markus |
Your last post shows that you have made a successful connection. The problems you describe suggest a problem with DNS. What is the content of /etc/resolv.conf after the connection is made? Can you ping the DNS servers at 212.23.97.2 and 212.23.97.3?

Hello allend,
no I cannot ping any IP-adress, I don't think that it is a DNS-Problem, because when I ping a name, the IP-adress of the host is shown, maybe they are in the DNS-cache, but I did ping adresses which I did not visit since several month and had an IP-adress although. So my idea is that DNS works, but routing does not work. I found an example routingtable for a ppp-connection in a network-book, I'll try that out. Anyway, thanks for your help, any suggestions are appreciated. Markus |

sakis3g does not work. It tries to use wvdial and crashes then, as I wrote earlier wvdial has a bug and exits.
The problem seems to be that I have the correct settings, but sometimes I don't have enough signalstrength in order to receive a correct configuration. And when I have a connection, I suppose I have a routing-problem. Markus |
I've added some compiler flags to wvstreams that should avoid the crash, I suggest you to try the new build script
http://cgit.ponce.cc/slackbuilds/commit/?h=wvstreams |
Thanks ponce, I'll try that tomorrow.
I've read much about GSM and PPP recently, I don't have a solution yet, but it seems that the newsgroup comp.protocols.ppp is very valuable regarding to this. Markus |
Ciao Markus,
I don't know if can be useful for you, but if you like read this one: http://www.linuxquestions.org/questi...3-37-a-943335/ |
Hi Bourbon,
I didn't read this thread but I'll read it carefully. My problem with sakis3g was that it uses wvdial which yet does not work correctly with Slackware-current (32bit and 64bit as well). I will at first have to rebuild wvstreams with the patches ponce posted above and then rebuild wvdial. But thanks for your help anyway. Markus |
i believe that this really is a routing issue, although the output of "/sbin/route" that you posted looks quite similar to mine (except that i have a lo interface set up). wvdial as well as sakis3g will just run pppd sooner or later.
looking at the sakis3g script, there are at least two snippets which might interest you: firstly the pppd-options: Code:
pppdoptions="${PPPD_OPTIONS}" and secondly the post-connection stuff, especially this one: Code:
routing_fix() { Code:
route add default gw 10.64.64.64 |
Been following this since my earlier suggestions, and apologies if they have not worked. Anyhow, I have been trying to figure out what might be happening (or not) and I have no idea if this is related or not, but running 64-current, I too am unable to connect with my Huwaei 3g Modem, but, using the same modem on the 32 bit edition, I have no problem at all.
Can't for the life of me figure out why. Is it possible that the hardware itself will only work under a 32bit environment? |

Also I have Installed Win 7 on both machines, 64bit on the Laptop 32bit on the subnotebook, the stick works with both. The errormessages regarding wvdial are also the same for both, 32 and 64bit. Markus |
Try to put this in your /etc/ppp/options file:
:10.168.199.189 ipcp-accept-remote novj |
It works!!!
I'll post my scripts later, but at first want to say thank you very much for all the help! Markus |
Well, now I've veryfied that it works with Slackware-current and with Slackware64-current as well.
my umts.chat file Code:
#/etc/ppp/umts.chat Code:
#/etc/ppp/peers/umts Code:
#/etc/ppp/options on the commandline as root I did Code:
pppd call umts debug nodetach Also I did what san wrote Code:
route add default gw 10.64.64.64 Code:
OK 'AT+cgdcont,"IP","internet.eplus.de","0.0.0.0"' One question remains. Regarding to the chat-file I pushed the PIN to the stick via the commandline Code:
echo "AT+CPIN=XXXX" > /dev/ttyUSB0 Code:
AT+CPIN? Markus |
