You've gone to a lot of trouble for me, I am very grateful. I did not explain my situation well, I have internet at home, I use the 3G modem when I am outside, at various locations (usually coffee shops), so this setup will be cumbersome... :-) But thanks, I'll try it when I find time. The AT commands I used are from this page: http://forum.huawei.com/jive4/thread.jspa?threadID=320231&tstart=50&orderStr=26 The response is "OK", but still I get the green light. Just two quick questions: a) Is the 3G-locking a one-off process, or do I have to repeat it every time I connect? b) If it isn't, do you know how I can send commands to the modem while it is connected to the Voda(fail) network? The "cu" program refuses to send the commands while the modem is in use, in all the ttys. <snip> > Green blinking > A GPRS network has been found – you could connect > Green solid > Connected via GPRS > Blue blinking > A 3G network has been found – you could connect > Blue solid > Connected via 3G > Light blue blinking > A 3G Broadband network has been found – you could connect > Light blue solid > Connected via 3G Broadband. Thanks, I did not know about light-blue. <snip> Again many thanks, please don't give so much time to this, I feel guilty like I am using you... :-) Best regards, Panayiotis -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
