Thread: Help me to configure zte MF631

hi all,

using ubuntu 11.04 64bit , finding difficulty in configuring zte mf631 usb modem. configured dialer when ever connect device , dial it, disconnects automatically.


please me.


in advance

try sakis3g script:

http://www.sakis3g.org/

usb modems work it. recommend using this:

code:

sakis3g --console --interactive

in terminal - because default graphical version kinda funky , leaves tons of zombie processes behind.

usage tips:

- have kill modem-manager (that part of network-manager) allow access usb modem (in terminal):

code:

sudo killall modem-manager

- have enter (anything, 1 letter or digit suffice, dont let them blank) in fields of user , password when asked (provided dont need user , pass of course - default dont).
- pin code can preset if create blank file in home dir , enter modems pin code:

code:

nano $home/.3gpin

enter pin code, save ctrl-o , exit ctrl-x.

example advanced command line usage - presets apn "internet", user "user" , password "pass" dont have deal them later (change need apn).

code:

#!/bin/bash  sudo killall modem-manager  force_apn="internet" apn_user="user" apn_pass="pass" sakis3g --console --interactive connect

this can saved in script that runs in terminal have double click on after modem inserted (this kills modem manager process permit script access device).
if ran sakis3g once, find icon here if want add scripts icon:

code:

$home/.local/share/icons/sakis3g.png
