DogearsHi, Can anyone help with a TelstraBigpond dongle install?08:58
ikthmm09:05
iktsounds like fun09:05
iktwhich ubuntu are you using Dogears ?09:05
DogearsI have a clean install of 10.1009:07
DogearsI am helping the inlaws out back of Grafton and all works ecept the connection09:07
iktah nice09:07
iktI'm just checking about the dongle09:08
iktit's not a 3g/4g service is it?09:08
DogearsThe usb modem is recognised and connects but I am having problems with the settings09:08
DogearsYes 3g bigpond 09:08
DogearsSierra09:08
DogearsUSB 30609:09
iktoh09:09
DogearsTelstra won't help09:09
iktyeah I wouldn't think they'd even know what ubuntu is09:09
iktwould be nice if internode had a nice big 3g network09:09
DogearsYes I use internode in Sydney if only09:10
DogearsWe are up in the hills and have nothing but Telstra here09:11
iktyeah :(09:12
iktso the network connection manager09:12
iktwith the 3g settigns are all in place?09:12
DogearsThe APN that Telstra suggestedwas Telstra.bigpond but the install from Ubuntu lists 3 different APN's 09:13
DogearsI have tried them all and none work.09:13
iktwhere does it list 3 different apn's?09:14
DogearsThe network wireless manager listedTelstra and had several options to choosefrom09:14
DogearsI have Googled all afternoon and found nothing09:15
DogearsA lot of stuff from 2007 which is out dated09:16
DogearsTime to figure this and and to the forum09:16
iktyeah09:17
iktI'm still looking around myself 09:18
DogearsTelstra has a help desk but they want to charge for the privilege and probably can't help anyway09:18
iktinstead of paying them you could probably get a new router with 3g built in09:20
iktthat way the computer connects to it via ethernet09:20
iktand that would say a whole bunch of trouble 09:20
iktsay == save09:20
DogearsIt's not mine I am only trying to help.09:20
DogearsThere is no way to connect up here apart from wireless 3G09:21
iktah09:21
iktwhat type of dongle is it specifically? if it's a Sierra Wireless 880U USB Network Adapter looks like there's a script09:22
DogearsI have another friend I need to connect as well so there must be more around 09:22
DogearsIt lists as a USB306 but I dont no how to list the usb connections on Win709:23
DogearsAirCardĀ® USB 30809:26
Dogearssimilar to this09:26
DogearsWhere did you find the script09:26
elkyThe mailing list might be a good idea too, there's regularly been discussions on various modems in the past.09:31
DogearsYes I need to find out but I go home tomorrow and they will go back to the win7 laptop.09:32
DogearsThey are creatures of habit09:33
DogearsThanbks for your help09:33
DogearsMake that Thanks!!09:33
airtonixdoesn't networkmanager create an entry in /etc/NetworkManager/system-connections/* for 3g profiles too ? 17:39
airtonixjust edit the apn there17:39
head_victimNot sure, I would have just referred them to the wireless link on the wiki20:59
