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?

User having trouble connecting to VPN using mobile broadband card

I've got a user with a laptop running Windows 7 who is trying to use an AT&T mobile broadband card to connect to a VPN using the Cisco IPSec VPN client. The card is the Sierra Wireless Momentum 4G. The VPN connection established fine, but no traffic gets passed after that. Other users can connect to the VPN fine (not using mobile broadband, though). Wired and wireless connections from this laptop are able to get to the VPN fine. It's just over the mobile broadband service that this happens. Are there any workarounds for this issue?

Hi and Welcome to the Community!
To use the proprietary BB services (including Push email capability, native browser, BBM, etc.), you must have an adequate data plan from your carrier. The carriers host BIS (BlackBerry Internet Service) for their BB users. Typically, BIS is not available via generic data plans. Many carriers call what is necessary The Blackberry Data Plan. Whatever they call it, it is the carrier who delivers BIS to their BB users -- contact them for assistance. Once you have a BIS-capable data plan on your BB (at whatever fees your carrier will charge, btw), your BB-proprietary services will function (e.g., you will have Personal/Internet Email added to the email setup wizard, your BBM will function, etc).
http://www.blackberryfaq.com/index.php/What_do_I_need_a_Data_Plan_for%3F
With hundreds of carriers in the world, each with dozens of different data plans, it's impossible to tell you specifically what any service plan might actually provide. Only the carriers can answer that question. The best thing to do is to decide what services you desire, and then talk to your carrier about obtaining (from them) a data plan that enables what you desire.
Good luck!

How to get the ESN of a Mobile Broadband using the mbnapi?

Please let me know if there is a better forum to ask my question.
I have created a VS 2010 C++ program to communicate in LAN, WWAN or WI-FI. The program runs under windows 7. In the previous release of this program, we were using QCWWAN2K.dll to communicate in WWAN but now the customer requested to use
the Mobile Broadband API of windows 7 (mbnapi.h). Everything is working fine except the fact that I can't get the ESN number of the mobile broadband adapter. The function I am using is IMbnInterface::GetInterfaceCapability. This function should return the
IMEI for GSM devices and ESN/MEID for CDMA devices. In my case, it's a CDMA device but it always return the MEID. I really need to get the ESN.
Is anyone know how to do it?
Thanks in advance.

Hello,
Thank you for your post.
I am afraid that the issue is out of support range of VS General Question forum which mainly discusses the usage issue of Visual Studio IDE such as

Can't send mail when using mobile broadband

Hi
I am getting quite frustrated as I can't send mail when using my mobile broadband modem! I can receive mail, and surf the internet etc, but mail just wont send!(i get the usual cannot send try later/resend options). I thought this might be an issue with my mobile broadband but have recently reinstalled it. When at home on a wireless network I have no such issues.
Any help appreciated
Charlie

I am not using a SMTP it is a Pop3 domain name account from freeparking and uses mail.'NAME'.com for incoming and outgoing mail!
Even though your e-mail service uses the same URL for POP3 and SMTP servers, in the software sense you actually do have separate POP3 and SMTP servers, although they may be hosted on the same machine, or the requests are routed via some "smoke and mirrors" to the right host.
It is not related to my ISP at home, which is Virgin media. My mobile broadband provider is 3. I was thinking it might be that I need to change the port settings in mail when using my mobile modem, but don't know what to change them too(or how to do it!) or configure the modem differently but again not sure what to do there!
Check with the freeparking online help to see if it supports port 587 or some such.
Also try Mail's "Connection Doctor" (under the Window menu) when you're away from home to see if that shows anything useful.
Since you can send e-mail from that SMTP server when you're at home but not when you're using your mobile broadband, I think one of two possibilities is likely: (a) Your mobile broadband provider is blocking your attempts to access the freeparking SMTP server and/or port. (b) The freeparking SMPT server for some reason doesn't like being communicated with via your mobile broadband provider. I'd check with each of them to explore these options.
Does your mobile broadband provider have an SMTP server that you can use instead of the freeparking one?
My modem(Huawei E220) is not particularly Mac friendly as it is, and I believe Mail can be quite sensitive when servers don't respond immediately?
Yes. Mail seems to have a fixed time-out value for server responses.

Install Arch using mobile broadband.

Hey! Is it possible to install Arch Linux using a mobile broadband? If it is, how do I do it?
I tried to modprobe usbserial but it wasn't found, can I get the module before the installation?
Thanks for reading, Pics.

Yes and no.
Yes: ppp is on the installer CD, but nobody seems to know how to work with it. Try this and/or this.
No: wvdial is not on the installer CD.
Workaround: Put wvdial and wvstreams on a USB stick.
There's been some discussion about inclusion of wvdial on the installer: http://mailman.archlinux.org/pipermail/ … 14388.html

Network Manager: Problem using Mobile Broadband

Hello,
I'm trying to use NetworkManager to configure an Internet connection using a 3G modem USB dongle.
I have a Huawei E160 on O2.
Steps taken so far:
* Installed NetworkManager using the ArchWiki article:
http://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/NetworkManager
* nm-applet would not start, and the error on the virtual terminal matched that in the troubleshooting section of that article. I backed up and changed those 2 files. I don't know much about PolicyKit but nm-applet started and was able to connect to a WiFi network.
* I tried connecting to O2: the device was detected but on attempting to connect, the nm-applet connecting icon froze or stuttered (as in the animation was about 0.2fps).
* Errors on the tty indicated that nm was looking for files that did not exist. After searching I found a package 'mobile-broadband-provider-info' on LaunchPad which is included in Ubuntu. I found it in the AUR and installed it.
* Tried again, same behaviour of the icon, but this time errors on the tty resembled the errors that occured when nm-applet would not start.
I'm guessing the problem is with the PolicyKit configuration in the 2 files:
/etc/dbus-1/system.d/NetworkManager.conf
/etc/dbus-1/system.d/nm-applet.conf
If we can put together a general solution to 3G modems (rather than my specific problem), I will be willing to help out with the relevant wiki articles (probably after my exams).
Thank you very much for your help,
James Haigh.

Hooray! It's working!
I booted into Arch to run nm-applet from the terminal emulator to collect the exact error message to post, but then I noticed the mast icon!
I couldn't figure out why this now worked but I wondered if Ubuntu had sort of initialised the modem somehow (when I started this thread using the LiveCD, that was the first time I'd got it to work).
I don't think it was the restart because I'm pretty sure I restarted after installing mobile-broadband-provider-info.
So I started to read the new replies. I thought I'd set pacman to download (and install) arch-wiki-docs while I write a reply. My USB wireless mouse stuttered and stopped working. I tried replugging it, syncing it, wouldn't work. The download which was going at about 20KB/s (I thought this was due to bad reception; my O2 phone gets 1 or 2 notches here at college), stuttered and spewed out errors.
My tablet PC annoyingly has only 2 USB ports and no CD drive. So to use a LiveCD, keyboard and dongle I had to use a hub. I left the hub in when I booted Arch, and unplugging it fixed my mouse and dongle. The download went about 100KB/s!
But I wasn't using the hub before I used the LiveCD. I was just using the keyboard and dongle, and a great Firefox add-on called LoL, which makes browsing with no mouse easier.
(If interested, this list including LoL is useful:
https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefo … n/keyboard )
So the initial problem is at least 1 of these:
* Bad reception
* Ubuntu initialised the modem but my installation/configuration of Arch could not
* I forgot to restart if/when it mattered
And the 2nd problem was the hub.
These weren't problems:
* ConsoleKit configuration
* Settings
I tried to understand those 2 files using GVim's diff with the backups and I couldn't see anything to try, so I left them unchanged.
My settings are in the manual for the dongle. They're not in mobile-broadband-provider-info so I will file a bug to make it easier for Ubuntu users etc. Looking at /usr/share/mobile-broadband-provider-info/serviceproviders.xml I made this:
<apn value="m-bb.o2.co.uk">
<name>Pay & Go</name>
<username>o2bb</username>
<password>password</password>
</apn>
The manual also says that:
* Tel no: *99# (which appears to be default and is never specified in serviceproviders.xml)
* Authentication: PAP (Also not specified, the default of try all methods works for me)
I could add a mobile broadband subsection to the troubleshooting section of the wiki article:
* Check signal
* Check USB
And add relevant links on articles like 'USB_3G_Modem' etc.

I like pacman and I like the way upgrading my system is my responsibility but that shouldn't have happened without a message. I'll be aware of things like this now, thanks.

To install packages from the AUR, I suppose I'd have to:

* build and install.
Also, command line configuration of connections might not be very practical at college; if something goes wrong I won't be able to access the ArchWiki, Google or other help. Although it might be worth a try.
Yeah that sounds about right (except you don't need to modify the PKGBUILD, just place the downloaded files in the same folder as the PKGBUILD and run makepkg).
That's useful to know.
Once you've got your internet running you can install 'community/arch-wiki-docs' for offline wiki access.
Thank you so much! This could be a life saver! I've installed it.
If you're in the UK, mkwvconf output for O2 is:
I will explore this alternative sometime. For something as important as this, a backup plan is useful. I've been using netcfg for WiFi for quite some time before I installed nm. It'd be great to use netcfg (and the nice menu) with wvdial.
Thank you all very much,
James.

How to determine mobile operator used

I have bought a second hand iPhone 4s. The seller did not know which operator used. I need this info in order to unlock the mobile and switch operator. How can I determine the old operator used?

Go to settings, general, about, and see what it says for carrier. I would be concerned about a phone that I purchased where the person selling it did not know who the carrier was. Did they not know who they paid for sevice? I would not be surprised if you cannot use this phone.

How do you open ipad 1 sim slot

Help

You should have a small metal 'sim eject' tool with the iPad :
Open the SIM tray:
1 Insert the tip of the SIM eject tool into the hole on the SIM tray.
Press firmly and push the tool straight in until the tray pops out. If you don’t have a Sim eject tool, you can use the end of a paper clip.
2 Pull out the SIM tray to install or replace the micro-SIM card.

How to block mobile broadband permanently to avoid data charges

i love the wifi on this phone, but i occasionally accidentally get data charges. i have data roaming off, but it sometimes still goes through. what do i do???

You can either call customer service and have data blocked, but sometimes they will do it wrong and block picture/video messages as well. How i did it was that I logged into myverizon on my home computer and there is an option on the bottom to "change features" under the section labeled plan, click on that. Then on the right side of the screen there is link under the "related actions" section that says "Manage Service Blocks" click that. Finally select "block all data features" and click update. Your done and can now use your phone without fearing data charges and yes you can still use WIFI.

Lenovo b570 Sim Slot

Hi everybody, this is Ahsan having lenovo b570. I want to use the built-in sim slot in my lappy as a GSM Modem. Is it possible? If yes then how? A prompt response will be highly appreciated.

Hello Ahsan,
Using Internet from SIM is really convenient.
You need to check if the WWAN hardware module is present in the laptop otherwise you need to get it installed from the service center then install Wide Wireless Lan driver
http://consumersupport.lenovo.com/in/en/driversdownloads/Drivers_Show_4230.html
You may share your laptop serial number with me in a Private Message so I can check the detail of WWAN hardware.

DROID Incredible and Mobile Broadband

I just upgraded to a DROID Incredible and want to tether my device and use Mobile Broadband. The problem is I have a MacBook with OS X 10.5.8.
Is it posiible to tether the Incredible to the MacBook? If so, how do I do it? The software that came with the phone was for Windows. I have AccessMgr on my Mac as I used to tether an LG Env3.
Thanks for the help.

You can as long as you are on android 2.2, go into settings>wireless and networks and enable it, but you do have to pay extra for it.

FIOS vs. Mobile Broadband

FIOS is now available to us. We have been using mobile broadband. Should we stay with mb or go to FIOS for $10.00 less a month? Which is more reliable in everything overall?
Solved!
Go to Solution.

FiOs certainly offers much higher speeds than Mobile Broadband, especially on the uplink side. In addition FiOs probably has considerable capacity for growth. The bandwidth (and consequently capacity) for Mobile Broadband is more limited, and as more and more high speed mobile devices make larger and larger demands on the Mobile Telephone networks, network congestion isn't a matter of if, it is when and how bad.
If you are talking EV-DO service from Verizon, it tops out at around 3mbps on the downlink, and about 1.8mbps on the uplink according to my reference, although your average speeds are large data transfers are likely to be considerably lower.
By contrast, a typical FiOS connection these days is probably 20mbps down, and 5mps uplink, and on large data transfers, I often see performance that is very close to rated speed. If you are willing to pay for it, you can actually have 50mbps up and down in most areas.
The other important difference is most Broadband Mobile plans have limits on total traffic with charges for exceeding the capacity that can be quite significant. By contrast, FiOS effectively has unlimited total traffic included in the standard price.
I haven't had any issues with FiOS reliability (my DSL however was dead if I could hear thunder), nor does weather seem to impact the performance at all.
What you haven't mentioned is which/whose broadband mobile plan are you comparing to which FiOS plan. The low end FiOS may not be materially faster than your best broadband mobile connection, the upper backets of FiOS (some of which are not cheap) will leave mobile broadband in the dust.

Skype on mobile broadband

Hi all - I recently started using mobile broadband with Optus. I'm running OSX 10.5.8 on a laptop.
I just tried to video chat and it didn't seem to be connecting.
It then showed a message which said - no proxy found.
Also, when I select the accounts tab and scroll down to Skype Access (Wifi) is says:
"Your current wifi network Optus ... does not support skype access. Please try another available public network. Tip: Skype access doesn't work with private or closed...". And it ends there.
Any help would be much appreciated.
Cheers,
David

You wouldn't be charged by Skype, as a one-on-one video call between Skype users is free. You could be charged by your mobile phone carrier, depending on your data plan and whether or not you have exceeded any daily or monthly limits. If you are doing this while you are off your mobile phone's home network (roaming), you would almost certainly be charged by your mobile phone carrier for the data usage. You would need to review your mobile phone's plan, or contact your mobile carrier for details on potential charges for data usage from your phone. Using WiFi instead of a mobile network for your Internet connection would let you avoid possible charges from the mobile carrier, although you may have to pay to access hotspots depending on where you are.

Mobile Broadband - why is there a 25GB limit for business? I need more!!!

Hi Telstra.I am a business owner in Western NSW.I can not get adsl or nbn where I am so I am stuck with the mobile broadband as the only solution.Pity that the prices are ludicrous and the plan limits are completely unreasonable. I understand that alot of people only use mobile bb when they are out of the office or travelling and dont need much capacity, but we use mobile broadband to run our entire company because your current infrastructure does not support any other internet access. With most business transactions and accounting being cloud & email based now, our dependance on the internet is everything. When is Telstra going to come into the modern age and learn to be flexible to tailor plans to suit individual cases and not charge the earth for it??? Cheers.Mick

While I agree about the limitations, they do have reasons to limit the access to data over the mobile network... Data over the mobile network does cost more, because it requires more investment and is much more limited in capability than the fixed network. With the new 4G and 4GX capabilities, a lot of towers would be able to handle increased data allowances on Mobile data, in the same way that the new plans provide the higher allowance for Mobile Phone plans, however I highly doubt that it will be significantly cheaper if they do change the plans... more likely the prices will be pretty much the same but with different allowances or something... I know one of the moderators did hint at new plans being in the pipeline, at least for residential customers, and if they increase those, no doubt the business ones will also increase... however, when and what actually is going to change is yet to be seen. But as PP has said, the erratic nature of the NBN roll out is the greatest enemy of private investment...
