kbmonkeythey don't make em like they used to06:01
kbmonkeyanything over 1 year 06:02
Kilosthe router is on and shows 3g dongle and eth connection06:02
Kilosonly this pc dont see the eth connection06:02
kbmonkeythe router has an eth light, and that is how it shows ?06:03
Kilosya06:03
Kilosi moved it to another port and it shows it there too06:03
kbmonkeymaybe you need to set your pc's IP address, you will need to find an expert in that06:04
kbmonkeyassuming the router does not have built-in dhcp06:04
kbmonkeybut you would expect them to have06:05

Kiloshttp://lawrencematthew.wordpress.com/2013/06/21/connecting-ubuntu-12-04-2-to-internet-using-d-link-dwm-156-3g3-75g-usb-modem/15:48
somaunnsorry was a bit busy15:48
Kilosive eventually got the thing mounted and see the files15:49
Kilosnp somaunn 15:49
Kilosi just came online myself15:49
somaunnwhy don't u just go 13.10 15:49
Kilosit doesnt see it either15:49
Kilosand no data to install a new os atm15:50
somaunnKilos: stop struggling with 12.04.215:50
Kiloshaha charl ran away15:50
Kilosno man .415:50
Kilosi will get 14.04  next15:50
Kilosmaybe in 2 months or so15:51
somaunnso you wait for 2 months before you get your 3G card to work ????15:51
somaunnthat's too hard to get for my brain15:52
Kilossomaunn the only prob i have with 12.04.4 is that it doesnt see the new d-link modem by telkom15:52
Kilosotherwise it runs kiff in unity and kde15:52
somaunni would just invoque one of the SuperGuys here and one should help providing necessary DVD from POSTNET15:52
Kilosbut now it sees it so im getting somewhere15:53
Kilosno man im happy with 12.04 for now15:53
somaunnput your simcard into a 3G phone (S3 etc..) connect on Wifi Hotsport and update your system (kernel etc..) then put back the sim card into the modem and give it a try15:54
Kilosno man one of those fones can buy me a years data15:57
Kiloswb Private_User 15:57
Kiloshi magespawn 15:58
magespawngood evening15:58

Kilosyou on tablet thing?15:58
Private_Userthank you Kilos15:58
magespawnno got a wired connection 15:58
Private_Useryep still experiencing connectivity issues15:59
Private_Userevening magespawn15:59
magespawnhi Private_User 15:59
Kilosok magespawn thats good, can you look at this link for me please16:02
Kiloshttp://lawrencematthew.wordpress.com/2013/06/21/connecting-ubuntu-12-04-2-to-internet-using-d-link-dwm-156-3g3-75g-usb-modem/16:02
Kilosi have it mounted in read only mode because it says its write protected16:03
Kilosso now where it says extract the .deb file i cant extract it there , i get the option extract to16:04
Kiloswhere must i extracts it to16:04
Kilosoh to /home16:05
magespawnhold on let me read16:05
Kilossorry i didnt read far enough16:05
Kiloswas too excited16:05
Kilosstep 3 im on16:07
magespawnalways a good idea to read all the way16:07
Kilosive spent couple of days just trying to mount the stupid thing16:08
Kilosis that home folder he talks about /home/miles/16:08
magespawni would presume so, he does not say anything about another user16:09
Kilosoh not in the /home/ folder16:10
Kilosthats where im stuck\16:10
Kilosunity is a pain to open the /home folder16:10
magespawndid you download it Kilos? how did you download it?16:16
Kilosi mounted the cdrom part and then opened it with the home button16:17
Kilosthen you gotta go back from /miles by clicking on its left where you normally see the path16:18
Kilosthen you see /home16:18
Kilosthen in there you open cdrom16:18
Kilosand thats it16:18
Kilosbut it wont let you extract here16:19
Kilosso ive extracted it to /miles/ and ill copy it from there to /home/16:19
Kilosdoesnt that sound logical16:19
Kilosthe modem is version 7 and online you can only get versaion 6 of the firmware16:20
magespawni think to extract in /home you would need sudo16:21
Kilosyou cant do that with nautilus16:21
Kilosbut i can copy it to home with terminal16:22
Kilosusing sudo16:22
magespawnextract it in terminal\16:25
magespawnyou can also start nautilus with sudo from a terminal of you need to16:29
Kilosive lost it now16:31
Kilosand theres is the one i got off the modem with xp yesterday in my home but it crashed my pc yesterday16:32
Kilossigh16:32
Kilosoh you gotta go into file system when you have clicked home16:33
Kilosthen cdrom in there16:33
Kilossjoe16:33
Kilosmaak my kop draai16:33
magespawnwhen ever i follow instructions for the first time i try to copy exactly what they have done and not think too much16:39
Kilosi gotta take a break.16:39
Kiloswill try again later16:39
Kiloslost now16:39
Kilosis there a command to rename a file16:46
magespawnsometimes that is best, the instructions are also not totally complete16:46
