I'm trying to connect to internet with a gprs cellular phone, a Motorola c350, connected to my laptop Hyundai 255KI 15 with a mini usb cable. Debian Sarge 3.1 is installed. I've been following the howto at:
http://www.debianitalia.org/modules/wfsection/article.php?page=1&articleid=96 . First I made sure the acm driver was there, with: # dmesg |fgrep acm . Then I did: # mknod /dev/usb/ttyACM0 c 166 0 . Then I created a file /etc/pppd/peers/provider and filled it with: # Speed 115200 # Use hardware flow control (i.e. RTS/CTS) to control the flow # of data on the serial port. crtscts # Use the modem control lines. modem # Specifies that pppd should create a UUCP-style lock file for # the serial device to ensure exclusive access to the device. lock # Disable Van Jacobson style TCP/IP header compression in both # the transmit and the receive direction. novj # Disables the default behaviour when no local IP address is # specified, which is to determine (if possible) the local IP # address from the hostname. noipdefault # This option causes pppd to create such a default route when # IPCP comes up, and delete it when the link is terminated. defaultroute disconnect '/usr/sbin/chat -e -f /etc/chatscripts/disconnect -v' connect '/usr/sbin/chat -e -f /etc/chatscripts/provider -v' /dev/usb/ttyACM0 user anything password anything #With this option, pppd will accept all control characters from the peer, including those marked in the receive asyncmap receive-all logfile "/var/log/pppd.log" nobsdcomp nodeflate . Then I created a file /etc/chatscripts/provider and filled it with: '' AT TIMEOUT 240 OK 'AT+CGDCONT=1,"IP","web.omnitel.it"' OK ATDT*99# TIMEOUT 22 CONNECT "" . Then I put "noauth" in place of "auth" in the file /etc/ppp/options. Then I tried to connect with '# pon', but it couldn't be established: this is the file /var/log/pppd.log: AT OK AT+CGDCONT=1,"IP","web.omnitel.it" OK ATDT*99# CONNECT Serial connection established. Using interface ppp0 Connect: ppp0 <--> /dev/usb/ttyACM0 PAP authentication succeeded Cannot determine ethernet address for proxy ARP local IP address 83.225.200.24 remote IP address 192.168.100.101 Terminating on signal 15 Connect time 0.5 minutes. Sent 0 bytes, received 0 bytes. Connection terminated. disconnect script failed . The line 'Terminating on signal 15' shows that something is wrong. Could anybody suggest a remedy? Any help will be highly appreciated! Rodolfo
