Can't connect to mobile broadband using the Ericsson MBM F3705g

Question

Hello,
I am able to connect to the Three.co.uk mobile broadband using a Huawei E156G modem but when I try to slot the sim card in my Ericsson MBM F3705g, which is incorporated to my laptop, I can't get it to work

Answer 1

I am just starting out trying to install ARCH with ONLY an e156 USB 3G modem.... Sorry I can't suggest anything. And, I am asking if you could help me by posting you code for ppp.
I wish to connect with JUST ppp/pppd as it is all I will have in a base install. Not with wvdial. just ppp
can you let me know exactly what you did with the e156 to get running on ARCH with ppp?
