Problems installing my Motorola SB4220 thourgh the usb port

Jenny81 · 03-28-2005, 04:54 PM

Hi, I have a problem trying to get my Motorola SB4220 cable modem through the usb port, I need to use the usb port instead of the ethernet card because I have to use the ethernet card to be conected to my local lan, since the pc with linux on it is the gateway, I have tried reading guides about how to configure your usb cable modem throught your usb port but I was not able to find one for Slackware, the ones I found were for Debian and Red Hat, I tried them but it gets to a point where I have to configurate certain files that Slackware dont have. I would really like if some could help me, thank you very much in advance.

welcome to LQ!!!

=)

please post a link to the docs you are referring to so we can take a look at them...

Jenny81 · 03-28-2005, 08:05 PM

Here are some of the pages I went thourgh trying to get the modem to work
http://www.linux.com/howtos/Motorola...em/index.shtml
http://iglu.org.il/amit/cable/
http://www.linux-usb.org/USB-guide/x332.html
Evrything went fine using the guide that is in the first link here, I have usb support in the kernel and also CDCEther support since I was able to load the module using modprobe but then it said to edit a file called /etc/network/interfaces but I dont have that file in Slackware so that is the part I think I got stalled, thank you very much for your help.

on slackware you'd use the /etc/rc.d/rc.inet1.conf file... for example, on my box i have two interfaces:

eth0 is my internet interface, it's connected to my cable modem (via ethernet)...

eth1 is my lan interface...

for my internet interface i use DHCP and for my local one i have a static ip of 192.168.0.1...

my /etc/rc.d/rc.inet1.conf looks like this:

Code:

# /etc/rc.d/rc.inet1.conf
#
# This file contains the configuration settings for network interfaces.
# If USE_DHCP[interface] is set to "yes", this overrides any other settings.
# If you don't have an interface, leave the settings null ("").

# Config information for eth0:
IPADDR[0]=""
NETMASK[0]=""
USE_DHCP[0]="yes"
DHCP_HOSTNAME[0]=""

# Config information for eth1:
IPADDR[1]="192.168.0.1"
NETMASK[1]="255.255.255.0"
USE_DHCP[1]=""
DHCP_HOSTNAME[1]=""

# Config information for eth2:
IPADDR[2]=""
NETMASK[2]=""
USE_DHCP[2]=""
DHCP_HOSTNAME[2]=""

# Config information for eth3:
IPADDR[3]=""
NETMASK[3]=""
USE_DHCP[3]=""
DHCP_HOSTNAME[3]=""

# Default gateway IP address:
GATEWAY=""

# Change this to "yes" for debugging output to stdout.  Unfortunately,
# /sbin/hotplug seems to disable stdout so you'll only see debugging output
# when rc.inet1 is called directly.
DEBUG_ETH_UP="no"

that makes eth0 use the dhcp client daemon to configure itself... of course you'd need to have the dhcpcd package installed...

Code:

bash-3.00$ ls /var/log/packages/ | grep dhcpcd
dhcpcd-1.3.22pl4-i386-1

i hope this info helps you... good luck...

Thank very much, I tried editing /etc/rc.d/rc.inet1.conf giving it the ip of my internet conection on eth1 and the ip of my lan on eth0, but for some reason when I try to reconfigure eth1 (my cable modem) using ifconfig I get an error saying that there is not such device, I read somewhere that you have to asign the MAC address of your device, and I have the MAC of the modem when being use through the usb but I dont know how to give that MAC address to my eth1 I think the problem is that I can not get my pc to recognize my cable modem as eth1, maybe the solution is simple or not, I just really like to thank you for your time.

win32sux · 03-29-2005, 04:08 AM

your cable modem has a static IP??

okay, according to the first link you posted, you can try bringing the interface up with this:

Code:

ifconfig eth1 hw ether xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx up

replace the xxx with the actual MAC address...

see if that works... like, at least you should be able to see eth1 in "ifconfig" now...

if it works then try assigning the ip, netmask, and route like normal...

forget about /etc/rc.d/rc.inet1.conf for now, let's get it working with ifconfig first...

Jenny81 · 03-29-2005, 04:45 AM

Hi, I tried the command ifconfig eth1 hw ether 00:0B:06:9E

0:6f up but this is what I got

root@Osin:~# ifconfig eth1 hw ether 00:0B:06:9E

0:6f up

I dont know how to make the pc recognize the cable modem, I hope this information will give you a better breffing about my situation, thank you very much.

win32sux · 03-29-2005, 05:17 AM

i don't see a usb-ohci module loaded... i think it's needed:

Code:

modprobe usb-ohci

if usb-ohci doesn't load or work, try usb-ehci instead:

Code:

modprobe usb-ehci

Jenny81 · 03-29-2005, 03:43 PM

Hi, I tried loading that modules but I got this errors
root@Osin:~# modprobe usb-ohci

keefaz · 03-29-2005, 03:52 PM

Try plug and unplug the usb modem, open a terminal and see the
output of ' dmesg ' command

Could you post this output (the lines that you find relevant)

Jenny81 · 03-29-2005, 04:36 PM

Thank you for answering keefaz this is the dmesg before unpluging and plugging the modem back in, I did not know what might have been relevant or no so I will paste it all, I know it is a lot, sorry.

Thank you very much for your help.

egag · 03-29-2005, 05:44 PM

well...the *relevant * lines are just the last few.
maybe next time , when you want to look at the last system-messages use :

$tail -n 20 /var/log/messages

( here you'll get the last 20 lines. )

and for the cable-modem connection.......maybe possible to buy a cheap eth.-card ?

it'll save a you a lot of trubbles......

I really dont know what else to try, thank you very so much for your time though.

okay try with "modprobe usb-uhci"... i found a module with that name in my usb modules dir... might be worth a try...

Jenny81 · 03-30-2005, 12:38 AM

I have tried modprobe usb-uhci but I get same message I got with modprobe usb-ohci, I found a usb-uhci and usb-ohci in the folder where the source of the kernel is, so I think I might have to compile the kernel and enable support for usb-ohci, I think I'll try that or maybe I will just buy other ethernet card. Thank you very much you all.
