    LINPUS+NOKIA=Internet HOW-TO


    Hello! I tried to connect my AAO1 to internet through my Nokia 6233 for some time. I googled many sites, forums and I at last DID it! Now you can set up your Linpus for internet connection!

    1. Plug in your phone into AAO1
    2. ALT-F2
    3. Type "terminal" (without quotes)
    4. Type "lsusb" + press enter
    5. Type "dmesg | grep -i usb" + press enter
    6. Type "ln -s /dev/ttyACM0_/dev/modem" (_ is a space, 0 is zero) + press enter
    7. Type "wvdialconf" + press enter
    8. Type "sudo mousepad /etc/wvdial.conf" + press enter
    9. Edit your settings for internet: password, username and itinsting. For initstring edit init3. Then save file.
    10. Type wvdial in terminal.

    That's it!

    Cool.

    Could you please post here:
    -Your phone model
    -The result of your lsusb|grep Nokia
    -The output of dmesg|tail right after plugging the phone

    && your own /etc/wvdial.conf


    Thanks! That'll help people sort out by comparison. Anybody who succeeds with this method but with a different brand/model should post here for reference to others!

    My issue is as follow:
    Disconnects after 3 secs! nowhre to set the apn (3g for this provider)

    Cheers from Cambodia

    My phone model Nokia 6233

    I didnt type "lsusb|grep Nokia", I typed "dmesg | grep -i usb"

    After plugging the phone nothing occured on the display!

    My wvdial:


    [Dialer Defaults]
    Init1 = ATZ
    Init2 = ATQ0 V1 E1 S0=0 &C1 &D2 +FCLASS=0
    Init3 = AT+CGDCONT=,,"internet"
    Password = password
    Phone = *99#
    APN = internet
    Modem Type = USB Modem
    Stupid Mode = 1
    Baud = 460800
    Dial Command = ATDT
    Modem = /dev/ttyACM0
    ISDN = 0
    Username = username


    By the way, for usien of Bluetooth instead "ttyACM0" there is "rfcomm0".

    In topic about Bluetooth I ask help for that, but SOMEHOW it started to work!

    it may help for Bluetooth: http://www.howtoforge.com/linux_internet_access_gprs_edge_via_bluetooth_gsm_phone

    Thanks for this..

    Is there some prior step to the first post because oddly - on typing (as root) WVdialconf i get "no modem was detected"

    On typing WVdial I get an error

    "Cannot open /dev/input/ttyACM0: No such file or directory"

    I dont know as for you, but after typing "ln -s /dev/ttyACM0_/dev/modem" modem is installing! By the way, no any prior steps! I just typed as desribed above. And it start to work!
