CDMA 1x PCMCIA modem

My boss has recently given me a CDMA 1x V3G PCMCIA modem. I've found a compatible driver for it (I think) but I can't add it to my list of available modems.
I know that in previous versions of OS X there was a modems folder in the Library, but I can't find an equivalent.
Does anyone have any suggestions for how to add drivers to the list of recognised modems?

Thanks for the help, Camelot, but my Library folder doesn't appear to have a "Modem Scripts" folder. My account is the Administrator and I've tried searching for it but I don't get any results.
Any suggestions on what I can do?

Communication with PCMCIA-modem card

Hi there,
I have to extend my LabVIEW driven sensor system with a PCMCIA-modem
card (actually a GSM-card) so that my setup can transmit data
automatically via GSM under special circumstances.
Can anyone help me how to communicate with the modem-card and how to use
the AT-commands in LV?
Thanks a lot.
Markus

If a commercial solution is an option, you might consider contacting some of the
NI Alliance Members. I know of one that has a product called "ModemNOW!" that
I've heard good things about. Check out their page on the NI Solutions
Directory page (sorry for the lengthy URL, the company is named Microsys):
http://digital.natinst.com/alliance.nsf/b7d49ea02c8aa32c8625642f007e2ba6/af281fa53d7c4c47862562ca004b5ae2?OpenDocument
There are others out there. Another good site is the VI Market one:

I haven't run across any particularly complete or general-purpose examples for
modem communications internally at NI.

Pcmcia modem setup

I'm having unexpected difficulties in getting a pcmcia modem to work on my new Dell Inspiron 2200. The laptop has an internal hsf modem which I managed to get to dial but which refused to negotiate a connection, so I gave up on that and bought a Psion Gold Card 56k pcmcia modem - I had one of these on my previous laptop and it worked fine with Arch, so I was expecting no trouble this time.
I am trying to set up the modem to dial through kppp and I have followed the steps in the wiki (ppp,kppp,2.6 kernel). As the modem shows up in Windows as Com5, I have created the symlink from /dev/ttyS4 to /dev/modem as advised. Problem is, whichever device I select in kppp, I always get the response "The modem is busy".
cardctl ident gives:
product info: "Psion", "Gold Card 56k Combine iT", "56K+Fax", "V8.35"
manfid: 0x016c, 0x0006
function: 2 (serial)
However, I do not see the modem listed by cardmgr when it loads during the boot process, nor do I see it in the output of dmesg (I can't recall whether I should).
I am loading the modules pcmcia, pcmcia_core and ppp_generic through rc.conf, and the pcmcia daemon.
Am I missing anything here? I'm starting to wonder if this Gold Card is different from my old one and maybe they changed the chipset.
Maybe I should add that I was able to get the supplied internal wireless card (Dell TrueMobile 1370 / Broadcom) running fine with ndiswrapper, but this should not affect the operation of the modem afaiaw? Despite having the wireless access at home, I do need to have dialup working for when I go travelling.
Thanks for any ideas.

I have fixed this problem. In /etc/pcmcia/config.opts there is a line
exclude irq 7
as this is meant to be reserved for the parallel port. But my laptop doesn't have a parallel port.
I discovered that my pcmcia card was using irq 7 in Windows XP, and after commenting out that line I am able to access the modem.

Two Buttons not working, mistake on PCMCIA, modem,....

Ok first of all I have problems with two of my four extra buttons on my Samsung X30. These two don't give keycodes when I try this with xev. Anybody an idea how to use these buttons anyway? When I push these buttons I get the following in demsg:
atkbd.c: Unknown key pressed (translated set 2, code 0x75 on isa0060/serio0).
atkbd.c: Use 'setkeycodes 75 <keycode>' to make it known.
atkbd.c: Unknown key released (translated set 2, code 0x75 on isa0060/serio0).
atkbd.c: Use 'setkeycodes 75 <keycode>' to make it known.
atkbd.c: Unknown key pressed (translated set 2, code 0x74 on isa0060/serio0).
atkbd.c: Use 'setkeycodes 74 <keycode>' to make it known.
atkbd.c: Unknown key released (translated set 2, code 0x74 on isa0060/serio0).
atkbd.c: Use 'setkeycodes 74 <keycode>' to make it known.
I see what it says about setkeycodes but finally I didn't know the keycodes for this keys so I couldn't set it I think.
Second problem is the PCMCIA. I configured YENTA as module and activated Cardbus in my kernel under PCMCIA and this is loading fine:
Yenta: CardBus bridge found at 0000:02:03.0 [144d:c00f]
Yenta: ISA IRQ mask 0x0018, PCI irq 11
But when pcmcia daemon is loaded on init that the module I82356 couldn't be loaded and so I copiled this module in my kernel. Now I get message on daemon load that this module couldn't be loaded: no such device. Very strange I think. i82356 is a ISA bridge and I'm pretty sure I don't have one on my machine so I don't understand why he depends on it.
I also get the message cardmgr[2739]: watching 2 sockets. I don't know exactly what this means but finally it has something to do with the pcmcia and the memory card reader I have on my machine which are both on the same socket or something like this. It would be very interesting if my memory card reader is working also when my pcmcia is working. I couldn't test both because I don't own such cards.
Last but not least I want to set up my modem so when I need it in the future I can use it without problems. It's a AC97 modem and I activated SND_INTEL8X0 for the sound and SND_INTEL8X0M which should be the modem. The last one is marked as EXPERIMENTAL but I think it should work but I don't have a clue how to get it working and how I should see if the driver runs correct. I have installed ppp but I couldn't start it because I don't have a /dev/ppp and when I create one with mknod /dev/ppp c 108 0 and try it again I get:
/usr/sbin/pppd: The remote system is required to authenticate itself
/usr/sbin/pppd: but I couldn't find any suitable secret (password) for it to use to do so.
best regards

thx my modem is working now but I need the proper daemon script to load it because I had to build the package for myself and the script available in this tar don't run. Before I'll post this original not working script I must make something clear.
The snd-intel8x0m driver can also be used to run this modem AFAIK everything runs with ALSA then but when I load this intel modem module My sound isn't working any more like phrakture said before. At the time it's better I think, to use the driver that comes with the slmodem package named slusb or slamr depending on what sort of modem it is exactly.
But now my faulty daemon script for slmodem:

PCMCIA modem cannot run on PXI (Win NT os)

"hi. i am using a PXI system which runs on Win NT.i bought a Win NT compatible pcmcia card modem to be used with the NI pc card carrier. However when running on Win NT, the modem wasnt able to detect my modem. and it simply couldnt dial. I was running fine when i use it on Win 98. anybody who have similar configuration as mine (specs below) and knows the solution pls help!! =( quite urgent
components of my pxi system (running on Win NT as OS)
8-slot chassis for PXI & Compact Modules
PXI-8220 2-slot PC Card carrier
PXI-6527 Isolated Digital I/O Module
PXI-7030 Real-Time Mulitifunction Board"

Windows NT does not have native support for PCMCIA. To get PCMCIA to work under Windows NT, you must have a third party card and socket services installed.
You may want to try an product called CardWizard. I have heard of people having success with it.

Connecting with Chinese ZTE CDMA (EVDO?) modem

There was a previous thread on this subject under Mac OS X 10.3, but it has been archived. I am starting it up again under Tiger, with the hopes that something can be discovered.
Some smaller countries are starting to offer CDMA internet service. Here in Malawi, Africa, the equipment being sold is by ZTE from China. While their equipment works with Windows, there is not much on the Apple side.
I have tried to connect with both the WF520, fixed wireless terminal and the WP520BD, which is the Maroon colored phone/modem unit. I have had some limited success using the scripts by Verizon, Sprint EVDO Support. Usually I get kicked off after 3-5 minutes, but one time managed to stay online for 5 hours! No consistent result. I have just read that the WWAN script works too. Will have to try that. I am also trying to get in touch with ZTE through their Australian site's forum.
Has anyone had any success using ZTE equipment on an Apple?
Cheers

CDMA USB Modem Not Working After Mavericks Install

I use my LG VX9100 (Env2) as a CDMA USB internet modem, and it worked fine in Mountain Lion on a Mid 2012 Macbook Air and all other Macs I tried it with. After upgrading to Mavericks, I am not allowed to initiate a connection because the I get a message of "No SIM" after it tries to initialize from the menubar. The phone works fine and I have confirmed that all of the settings are the same. The phone is on Verizon, so the phone has never had a SIM card. This all worked prior to the Mavericks install, so it appears to be a bug. Any suggestions of what to try?

Hi, no drivers were required in the past, basically just had to type in the phone number as the account name followed by @vzw3g.com and enter VZW as a password and it would connect right up using the built in cell data of the phone plan. Only works with dumbphones as far as I know.
So, unless mavericks is subtracting features rather than adding them, the built in drivers should still be there. I have tested it with 10.6 through 10.8 and settings are accesable via the "Network" PrefPane and it always recognized it from a fresh install of OSX. The following article suggests that they have been built into OSX since OS 10.2:
http://www.engadget.com/2005/01/18/how-to-use-your-cdma-cellphone-as-a-usb-modem /
That article was written in 2005 and said that some carriers would need a driver, but I know for sure that more were added since then as I have used built in drivers from 10.6 to 10.8.
Windows may need drivers, but mac has had most CDMA drivers built in for over 10 years now. The VX9100 uses a generic vendor driver, but OSX had selections for most major cell phone manufacturers built in for any custom requirements. There just doesn't seem to be a reason to get rid of the feature now.
Given the fact that it does show up in the menubar like it used to shows that the mac can tell that it is a modem and has the drivers there, but they aren't working properly.

How to install Toshiba software modem on Tecra M2

It has been a few months since I used dial up, then whilst travelling and found no ethernet cable to plug into I tried the dial up modem and it didn't work and was giving an error saying the modem was misconfigured or already in use.
On closer inspection it seems the modem was configured to use COM3 port which did not show up on the device manager listing. I tried to amend the com port to COM11 which was listed as unused and then the window hung though the rest of the laptop / XP worked.
I had to reboot the computer and found that the Toshiba Software Modem was no longer installed.
So I went to the drivers site and downloaded the driver and tried to install it. It spent a few minutes updating the drivers then the window closed without any error message. Going to control panel modems add modem have driver and clicking on the INF file did nothing.
So how do I get back the Toshiba Software Modem and when I do which port do I assign it to, also how do I know if all the COM ports are being recognised?

I have a tecra M1 and no modem will work on it. I first installed the 2000 OS drivers by mistake could not start device from the forums.
I realized my mistake and found the xp drivers. UNinstalled the old ones, XP drivers installed nicely; looks fine no errors no conflicts, working properly com port 3.
But when I query modem i get the port could not be opened it is busy please check the device manager for other problems with devices.
I do see that all items are installed correctly.
They are BUT I DID NOT INSTALL THE DRIVERS in the order prescribed in the instructions.
The modem got installed after lan and wireless and a bunch of other stuff.
I wanted to do a system restore to when I just installed windows XP Pro ( not the image of the M1) but I had not activated windows until after I installed the wireless drivers. I was afraid I would deactivate windows and that would be a bummer so I just created a restore point called "before I uninstalled drivers".
Then I went to the control panel add or remove programs and removed everything in the opposite order from the install instructions, when I rebooted the wireless and lan installed before the modem and the modem still was not functional even though it said it ws working properly in the DM>
Then I uninstalled wireless and lan installed the modem then rebooted AUGHHH. Not working
Well, before this I purchased a used modem and installed it and that set up fine also and did not work I got the same error message!!! AUGHH
THEN, I instaled a PCMCIA modem, It set up perfectly and got the same rror message. DOUBLE AUGHHHH
So thats when I go to thinking of the correct order of install and sigh..........
Well, if I system restore it, the way back to the time immediately after I installed windows and the rest will I be deactivated with Microsoft?
And do you think it would work?
If not if I wiped it and reinstalled XP and installed in the correct order do you think the modem problem would be fixed.
Any ideas?

Novatel USB551L 4G USB Modem

I finally upgraded my old 3G PCMCIA modem to a new Novatel USB551L 4G USB Modem. But... I can't get it to work. I have spent hours on the phone with VZW technical support. I visited two stores who had guys who's heads were so swelled about themselves I'm not sure how they got through the store door in the morning. They couldn't figure it out.
I have tried it on 3 different computers. One with WinXP Pro SP3, two others with Win7. Using VZAccess Manager 7.7.7. Also now have tried two different USB modems (same SIM). Same result on all. Everything looks normal as VZAccess Manager opens. I click "Connect to WWAN". All looks normal, I get the usage popup. It says "Connected" but when I open a browser, I cannot get to the Internet. I can send TXT messages. If I open the diagnostic tools in Access Manager, it says I can ping the DNS server, but NOT the gateway.
To me, it screams of a provisioning problem. But several people have checked it and say it is OK. The old card with old Access Manager were working fine.
Also, don't see any device conflicts in Device Manager.
Anyone have any ideas?

Thanks for taking the time to reach out to the community in regards to the problems you are having with your new device.
I'm sure this isn't how you wanted your upgrade to go.
John Getzke gave some very helpful information and I was wondering if you were able to get the SIM swapped at a store? Are you still having problems with the device? If so, is there an error message or code?
I also want to provide the http://bit.ly/12OM9gd for future reference if you ever need it. I look forward to your reply so we can get you back on the world wide web.

Pcmcia bluetooth card problem

OK, I have a bluetooth (bt) mouse, and two bt adapters. One adapter is usb and it works perfectly i.e. my bt mouse connects to it no probs. The other adaptor I have is pcmcia, which doesnt 'work'.
Here is the result of: udevinfo -a -p /sys/bus/pcmcia/devices/1.0
looking at device '/devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:1e.0/0000:02:01.1/1.0':
KERNEL=="1.0"
SUBSYSTEM=="pcmcia"
DRIVER=="serial_cs"
ATTR{modalias}=="pcmcia:m0279c950Bf02fn00pfn00pa281F1C5Dpb7664FB1Dpc00000000pd00000000"
ATTR{prod_id2}=="Bluetooth Card"
ATTR{prod_id1}=="PCMCIA"
ATTR{card_id}=="0x950b"
ATTR{manf_id}=="0x0279"
ATTR{func_id}=="0x02"
ATTR{pm_state}=="on"
ATTR{function}=="0x00"
So udev finds it and knows what it is no probs. However, hidd --search does absolutely nothing:
>hidd --search
searching ...
>
i.e. after the hidd command it prints searching and immediately goes back to a command prompt. Its not actually doing anything. I run kde and kbluetooth doesnt register that a bluetooth adapter is present at all.
looking back at the udevinfo output I think the driver thats being assigned is worng. As far as I understand the serial_cs driver is for pcmcia modems. Under suse 10.1 my pcmcia bt adapter works perfectly but udevinfo shows that the driver is "yenta_cardbus"
can anyone explain how I could force the driver used for my pcmcia bt adapter under arch to be "yenta_cardbus" or otherwise enlighten me as to what my problem might be.
Thanks

I called it
05-bluez-pcmcia-support.rules
I rebooted but still no success.
I also tried this:
ACTION=="add", SUBSYSTEMS=="pcmcia", ATTRS{prod_id2}=="Bluetooth Card", RUN+="aplay /usr/share/sounds/phone.wav"
But still no success

Microsoft hosted network virtual adaptor - setting ip is impossible - need help

I am able to create hostednetwork and access internet when I have public or private wifi
when I try to do the same with my reliance data card and share the internet to other device, it failed
problem Is the ip address in hosted network client is disappearing as soon as exit the window.
by default it should be 192.168.137.1, 255.255.255.0 but I am unable to set it manually.
need help
I am waiting for the solution for more than six months

reliance data card?
which means.. its a broadband USB modem(CDMA type)
but now i have reinstalled the os. i got the solution for sharing internet from such a cdma type USB modem to hostednetwork.
the sol is
Creating a new connection( set up a new connection or network) in network and sharing centre .
assing the dial up code, user name , password in that setup.
dial the new conncetion
now your system is connceted to the internet (just like the process done by the software given in that usb modem to get connected to the internet)
now we can share this internet to the hostednetwork client.
so click on the new conncetion -> setting> sharing>share to other dev
fornew hostednetwork
cmd window as admin
type the following cmd in cmd window
netsh wlan set hostednetwork mode=allow ssid=funonly key=12345678
netsh wlan start hostednetwork

Emate 300 Connect to Powerbook G4

Hello.
Little relic from the past here. I recently, dug up my emate 300 to find it as stunning and innovative as when I first got it in 98.
I would like to connect it to my powerbook G4. Unfortunatly, the emate only works through serial port connections prior to the USB days.
Now I do have a 56k PCMCIA modem card for the device. Can I dial into my laptop from the emate using the modem?
Is there any other way I can connect?

If the emate will do LocalTalk/AppleTalk, you can use a LocalTalk-to-Ethernet converter box. The AsanteTalk is still being sold, and both it and the Farallon Etherprint LT are available used.
These boxes were sold to allow LocalTalk devices (mainly printers) to be used on a network that has only Ethernet. They also work with up to 8 older Macs to share files and print, but will not allow you to get internet access on the older Macs.

Deleted CDMA USB Modem from Port Configurations... Can't get it back!

A while back, I was trying out a wireless USB CDMA modem. I didn't really like it and was mainly just using it for testing purposes, and after I was done with it I deleted the port configuration out of my Network Config, thinking A) I'd never need it again and B) It would repopulate or at least be able to be recreated if I wanted to use it again.
Well, this weekend I'm out of town in an area where I don't have an internet connection regularly and need the ability to connect without relying on WIFI. So I reactivated the USB modem and went on my way. As soon as I put the card in, though, nothing happens. Normally the card would automatically detect and even open up its own connection software in the title bar. This time, nothing. So I boot into Windows and test it out there: works fine. Detects, connects, loads webpages, everything. So it's not the card.
I go back into OS X and see if there's anyway to manually add it. I check in System Profiler, and sure enough, under USB the card is recognized. Not in modems, though, but I can't remember if it populated there before. Anyway, I go into Network Config, try to add a port, but the only things available are the typical Ethernet, Airport, Bluetooth, etc. No USB, no CDMA modem, nothing I need.
So what I'm thinking is, when I deleted the old CDMA modem setting in Network Port Configs, its pretty much permanently deleted it. My question is, is there any way for me to manually get it back? I really could use the benefit of this card at the moment.
Thanks for any help,
Bryan

I had not heard of that brand. Out here we get a lot of stuff from China and Korea.
After I wrote that last night, I had a closer look at my settings and the CDMA modem I have is shown in the Network Configurations panel -- yours is not, you say.
Sorry, if I was not clear about the point concerning Bluetooth. That panel provides a list of ALL modem drivers, so I was suggesting that you had a look in there, in case there might be a suitable modem driver you could use.
I had two of these modems (one was stolen) the first used that Null modem driver while the other used a Huawei driver that I had to work hard to make the local company find.
I just looked at the Franklin Support pages and as you say, they do not appear to have a driver listed for Macs, only the user guide.
As a late thought, and not wishing to sound funny at all: have you tried the other USB port? With one of the CDMA modems I had it would work perfectly in one port but in the other the computer never recognised it.
