Hur man tjudrar din Nokia N95s internetanslutning till din bärbar dator via USB i Linux

Ibland avslutar du upp någonstans med din bärbar dator var du precis inte kan finna any öppna WiFi. Luckily har du en Nokia N95, och USB-data cable. Förmiddag som I går att visa dig hur man tjudrar din N95 till din bärbar dator via USB ömt ställe och smutsar ner, befaller fodrar långt, as well as den mer nätt GUIEN långt. I dessa förmiddag rinnande Fedora 9 för exempel I och Gnome.

Varning: Du önskar antagligen endast att göra denna, om du har anständiga data att planera. Att använda data 3G kan resultera i en mycket stor räkning!

1. Du behöver att ha pppen att paketera, och de wvdial paketerar installerat. Om du inte, kan du enkelt köra, som rotar i ett slutligt fönster, yumen installerar wvdial ppp (eller använd paketerachefen för din Linux distro).
2. Starta, genom att plugga som är ditt, ringer in i datoren med en USB-datakabel. Välj, när ringa meddelar dig för att välja anslutningsfunktionsläget, PCfölje.



3. Nu öppna ett slutligt fönster och kontrollera din tillverkade dmesg. Du bör se något som är liknande till efter:

   [user@radon~] $ dmesg
   usb 4-2: den nya fulla rusade USB-apparaten genom att använda uhci_hcd och tilltalar 16
   usb 4-2: konfiguration #1 som väljs från prima 1
   cdc_acm 4-2: 1.10: ttyACM0: Apparat för USB ACM
   usb 4-2: dåligaCDC-deskriptorer
   usb 4-2: dåligaCDC-deskriptorer
   usb 4-2: Den nya USB-apparaten grundar, idVendor=0421, idProduct=0070
   usb 4-2: Den nya USB-apparaten stränger: Mfr=1 Product=2, SerialNumber=0
   usb 4-2: Produkt: Nokia N95 8GB
   usb 4-2: Producent: Nokia

   Notera fodra som något att säga cdc_acm 4-2: 1.10: ttyACM0: Apparat för USB ACM. Detta berättar oss att telefonens modem är på /dev/ttyACM0.

Vi nu flyttningen på till ömt ställe och smutsar ner befaller fodrar ställer in. Känselförnimmelse fritt som hoppar over till GUI ställer in nedanfört, om du inte är mycket bekväm med befalla, fodra.

1. Redigera /etc/wvdial.conf och gör det looknågot liknande detta:

Modem = /dev/ttyACM0
Baud = 460800
SetVolume = 0
Visartavlan befaller = ATDT
Init1 = ATZ
Init3 = ATM0
FlowControl = CRTSCTS

[DialerUSB]
Username = användare
Lösenordet = passerar
Ringa = *99 *** 1#
Dumt funktionsläge = 1
Init1 = ATZ
Övertar = Modem0

2. Förmiddag I genom att använda den Rogers radion i Kanada och det ovannämnt är den minimum konfigurationen som fungerar för mig. Formligen passerar Username = användaren och lösenordet =. You may need to make changes to the Username, Password, and Phone lines. Contact your wireless provider for the correct details.
3. I also had to create a script called /etc/ppp/ip-up.local to make the automatic DNS configuration work. Here’s my ip-up.local:

#!/bin/bash
#

PATH=/sbin:/usr/sbin:/bin:/usr/bin
export PATH
echo “# created by pppd” > /etc/resolv.conf
echo “nameserver ${DNS1}” >> /etc/resolv.conf
echo “nameserver ${DNS2}” >> /etc/resolv.conf
chmod go+r /etc/resolv.conf

Don’t forget to chmod 755 /etc/ppp/ip-up.local

4. Unfortunately I have not been able to connect as a normal user in this configuration so you’ll have to connect as root.

   [root@radon ~]# wvdial USB

   –> Cannot get information for serial port.

   –> secondary DNS address 207.181.101.5

5. I removed the lines containing unprintable characters, but otherwise you should see something very similar to above. Note that wvdial stays in the foreground. This is so you can disconnect by simply pressing Ctrl-C.
6. You can verify that you are online by switching to a new terminal window and running ifconfig.

2. You will be asked to enter your root password. Enter it and click OK.



3. Now you can see a list of installed network devices. Click on the Hardware tab.

4. Now click the New button, select Modem, and click OK.



5. Change the Modem Device to /dev/ttyACM0. If /dev/ttyACM0 is not available in the list, just type it in. Click OK.



6. Now click the Devices tab.

8. All I needed to do to make my Rogers Wireless connection work was enter *99***1# as the Phone Number, user as the Login Name, and pass as the Password. I also chose to name this connection USB. Click Forward.

9. I left these options at their defaults. Click Forward.

11. Click the X in the top right corner to close this window.

12. Click Yes to save the changes.



13. Click OK. No, we won’t need to restart the computer.

14. So, let’s use our newly created connection. Click System -> Administration -> Network Device Control.



15. Select the USB connection you just created and click Activate.

16. Notice how the USB connection has changed from Inactive to Active.

Some of you may be wondering why I chose not to use Network Manager. It’s quite simply due to the fact that mobile broadband support in Network Manager is in it’s infancy and I found it to be virtually unusable. Once Network Manager’s mobile broadband support becomes better, I’ll rewrite this tutorial based on it.
