I'm having 2 problems with this, I have an Alcatel Speedtouch USB (Frog type),
Problem 1:
I can only load the mgmt.o firmware:
modem_run -k -s -f /usr/share/speedtouch/mgmt.o
May 16 16:05:43 localhost modem_run[8274]: modem_run version 1.2 started by root uid 0
May 16 16:06:18 localhost modem_run[8476]: [monitoring report] ADSL link went up
May 16 16:06:27 localhost modem_run[8274]: ADSL synchronization has been obtained
May 16 16:06:27 localhost modem_run[8274]: ADSL line is up (576 kbit/s down | 288 kbit/s up)
If I try <firmware.bin> or <KQD6P2.eni> or <alcaudsl.sys> or <boot.v123.bin> I get:
modem_run -k -s -f /usr/share/speedtouch/firmware.bin
May 16 16:22:01 localhost modem_run[8158]: modem_run version 1.2 started by root uid 0
It doesn't bring the link up! I could live with using mgmt.o, but my biggest problem is this:
Problem 2:
When I do: (Whichever firmware)
pppd call adsl
It doesn't do anything but load the generic driver, it doesnt connect or anything??
May 16 16:25:29 localhost kernel: PPP generic driver version 2.4.2
Its driving me mad! Obviously I don't get ppp0, or any usefull error messages. Speedtouch works fine with 2.4 kernel.
My /etc/ppp/peers/adsl:
defaultroute
holdoff 4
maxfail 25
persist
asyncmap 0
lcp-echo-interval 2
lcp-echo-failure 7
name "a@b.c"
user "a@b.c"
plugin /usr/lib/pppd/2.4.2/pppoatm.so
0.38
My /etc/ppp/options:
noauth
usepeerdns
lock
noipdefault
Ive got /dev/ppp, /usr/lib/pppd/2.4.2/pppoatm.so, speedtch and atm are loaded!
Please help???/ |

Great howto, thanks, tho I still can't get firmware.bin to load.

I've been seeing similar problems. I'm using kernel 2.6.5 from gentoo-dev-sources. My usb is using the uhci_hcd module for my VT82xxxxx UHCI USB 1.1 Controller. Attempting to unload the usb modules causes rmmod to wait indefinitely.
I have the "firmware.bin" file because I've found it to be the best with my v2 (red) modem. I've also found that modem_run 1.2 doesn't load the firmware or sync the ADSL (it just exits). However, with the machine freshly rebooted I can get it to work using modem_run v1.2-beta1.
Unfortunately, improving this situation would seem to require fixes to both the kernel and modem_run.

you guys need to pass the -a option with the new modem_run
either use the KQD6_3.012 driver from the site or use /usr/share/speedtouch/boot.v123.bin which comes with speedtouch-1.2 (only for the -a option, use the -f option with whatever you want).

I had the same problem. fixed it by downgrading to 2.6.5 again.
it seems to be related to the usb-updates in the kernel 2.6.6. there are several fixes available, but none of the fixes that I tried brought back my modem...
so, downgrading to 2.6.5 was the solution I choosed.
regs,

Hi,
First of all, I don't use gentoo, because my Traffic Limit is not so high , but the documentations here are great .
I'm using Mandrake 9.2 with kernel 2.6.6, and have problems with my USB-Modem...
I've read this how-to, done everything postet there, except the thing with the patched pppd, because I can't make ebuild with Mandrake...
So I've skipped this step and went on. After running modem_run and pppd, I get following:
Code: | PPPoATM plugin_init
PPPoATM setdevname - remove unwanted options
PPPoATM setdevname_pppoatm - SUCCESS:8.48 |
looks allright, but there is still no internet connecton
The Modem ran well with the original Mandrake Kernel 2.4.22 and the speedtouchconf-script.
does anybody know what to do?
tia, frank |
