|
|
Hi,
after installing the driver, are you still using the card like the "other" card type with wvidal or other dialer ?
is there any specific AT commands to know about that card (any documentation?) ? do the other AT commands still working (like AT+COPS=? for example) ?
Thanks for the info

Testing
Then use gcom:
Modify your connection scripts to use /dev/noz0 and connect to the internet as you normally do with a GSM/UMTS card.
Installing the drivers for Automatic loading
My kernel uses PCI hotplugging therefore I can copy nozomi.ko to:
/lib/modules/2.6.1XXXXXXX/kernel/drivers/pci/hotplug
For good measure I also run depmod just in case.
These datacards use the same AT commands as the GlobeTrotter 3G and Fusion cards, so AT+COPS is supported.
For status monitiring during a ppp connection you can run gcom on /dev/noz2 or /dev/noz3:
| Code: | | gcom -d /dev/noz2 sig |
I hope this helps.

This is the root of your problem:
| Code: | | /root/tmp/nozomi.c:70:25: linux/kfifo.h: No such file or directory |
You need to check the path and that all the kernel header files are there.
Cheers,
Paul |

I have split this topic - the rest of the thread was moved to GlobeTrotter 3G EDGE forum.
Please keep threads to one topic.
Thanks,
Paul |
